I'm my web application, I've specified to use forms authentication in
the web config. In my signin page, I have an img tag to an image in
my web applications virtual directory. Because the user is not signed
in yet, the image url is not available, is there any way in the web
config file to specify specific files that do not require
authentication?

<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms name=".ASPXeScript.Admin" loginUrl="signin.aspx"
protection="All"
timeout="30" path="/" defaultUrl="default.aspx">
<!-- protection="[All|None|Encryption|Validation]" -->
</forms>
</authentication>
<authorization>
<deny users="?"/>
</authorization>
