Do not use physical paths with CR directly. Save the image as data or in a binary field in your database and show it.
Here is a code project solution using data:

It's simple, C # and a little old, but I think you are getting the trick.

This works in a later version of Crystal Reports (I am using XI R2)
- On the Insert Tools toolbar, select Insert Picture and insert any old picture into the report.
- Right click on the image and select Format Plot
- On the Image tab, select the "formula button" next to Graphic layout
- In Formula Workshop, you will be able to select the database column that contains your file path.
When you view the report, it should dynamically load images for each record.
Edit . I found a link it might be helpful.
