Hi,
Why did you/they put the images there? It's just the wrong way of doing things ...
The clean way (surviving patching etc.) would be to deploy (if not already there) analyticsRes and put your images there inside. A single copy of the images, no need to put them in 2 places and you will then be able to reference them by /analyticsRes/products/your_picture.jpg (assuming you put them into a "products" folder to keep things clean).
In the analysis you change the column type to display the image referenced by the path (and using a simple <img src="/analyticsRes/products/your_picture.jpg" /> where you want the picture will be visible.

could you please provide the steps how to change column type to display.

So with a column value of "/analytics/res/v-UBtil9ur9Q4/s_Skyros/master/oracle_logo.png" the result is:
0 -
where do we provide the path of images
0 -
(weird, looks like a piece of the thread disappeared ... didn't you posted a screenshot to which I replied already?)
The path you add it in the column, you can concatenate the fixed path with the "dynamic" name of pictures.

By the way, what's the point of opening 3 identical threads in various spaces?
Is their any chance to display the images in the report level in 11.1.1.9.0
Is their any chance to display the images in the report level in OBIEE 11G 11.1.1.9.0
It's an OBIEE question and nothing to do in a EBS or DB forum.

colomun properties >>> data format given treat text as Image URL

Sorry to ask but ... do you know OBIEE ?
All the answers are already above !
You must find a way to server via a webserver your images, adding them into s_blafp isn't a good idea as with the next bundle patch you lose them.
There is something that is generally called "analyticsRes", it's a custom deployment in weblogic where you expose the content of a folder on your server via weblogic. Find if you already have this deployment, if not do it (the doc cover these things and Google have tons of blog posts about it).
Deploy your images there inside, test the URL in your browser directly.
Edit the formula of your column in the analysis to add the required prefix and then changing the data format of the column the picture is on the screen.
Done !
