Not a good idea - to automatically include it in your project, you would have to edit the relevant .csproj file and / or trhe resx file. While these are in XML and are perfectly readable, I do not know what effect direct modification will have on VS - it may not notice, it may complain. Personally, I wouldn't do it. Save them well away from your project, and add them manually.

but i need it for a function call upload, where user upload the photo and later on the photo will be use by a image control

I think we are talking at cross purposes here.
Go back a stage.
You have a file upload control.
The user loads it, and presses the "upload" button.
What exactly to you want to happen?

when i click on upload control, user will select the image that they want to upload, when i click on "upload" button, it should save my image to the folder call "images" that i have created in the project

OK. When you are working with web projects, do not hard-code paths. Use a relative path, or a path starting with a backslash, and convert it to an absolute path using the Server.MapPath method instead:
FileUploadImg.SaveAs(Server.MapPath("/Images/" + filename));
You should also make sure there is a file first, using the FileUpload.HasFile property.
This code should not be in a method that you normally call though - it should be in the FileUpload Button Click event.
