Found the problem! In "Extensions > CFX Tags" of ColdFusion Administrator the Tag Name must be without the .dll extension, ie just "cfx_image_mx"
also: In the "Server Library (.dll)" box the complete directory and the tag name with .dll extension must be used as: "C:\CFusionMX7\wwwroot\CFIDE\CustomTags\cfx_image_mx.dll" I made the mistake of using the .dll extension in the tag name box PLUS I thought server library referred to the directory so I omitted the tag name as well... I'd like to mention 2 web sites I found helpful: 1.)http://store.newmediadevelopment.net/registertags.cfm - good images/descriptions 2.)http://www.emerle.net/programming/help/installing_cfx.cfm - which among many things describes how to restart CF.
