the easiest way is to right-click the image and choose 'Send To -> Floppy'
then to verify it is there, go to Start, Run, type A:\ and Enter

copy the image from the source to the floppy, using either drag and drop from your desktop or file browser, or using the cut and paste from your file browsers. Once on the floppy, use a viewer program to view the file. One note. A picture from a modern new digital camera is usually big and very few can fit on a floppy, which is why flash drives are better.

If by images you mean pictures, I can help! These instructions assume that you are using Windows XP.
Simply find the picture, right-click on it, and a little menu should pop up. One of the options on the menu will be called SEND TO. Simple go there, and select your A: drive. It will send a copy of the picture to your floppy drive.
If you want to check to make sure that it is there, that's easy too. On your desktop, you should have a thingy that says My Computer. If you double-click on it, it will bring up a screen with a bunch of stuff. You should see things like Local Disk (C:) and CD-RW Drive (D:) and things like that. One of them will be your A: drive, and it might say Floppy Drive (A:). Double-click on that and it will show you everything that is on the floppy disk.

open my computer and you will see there A or B drive, that is assigned to floppy discs. Just copy the image file to that floppy and again open file from floppy. If you can, its done.
Be careful not to copy shortcut only instead of file- its a very common mistake.
One more, floppies have very little capacity to store.

Right click on the icon for an image, select "Send to .3 1/2" floppy (A:)" and let go.
You can send more than one at a time if you do an extended selection - hold shift and click on each one is one way.
Then click on My computer, followed by the floppy icon (A:) and explore it. Click on the first file, use the Slideshow feature to see all files, one at a time.

Copy the image, then paste it on the floppy drive. Then double click the file that is on the floppy to check.

save your images as a Jpg or similar format, then(with the flopppy disk inserted) open the location of the image files, select the image (s) with left click (use CTRL for multiple select) then once selected Right click on your selection and choose the "send to" option. there should be a Floppy disk a: selection available.
once copied you can check the files by opening the disk from my computer and checking that the files are present (you can click on them to check that they open properly
remember on a floppy disk you only have 1.44 Mb to play with

In Windows Explorer copy the picture file to the floppy drive.
Open the floppy drive and open the picture file to check it works.

The same way as you transfer to any destination really. Floppy drives are generally drive A or drive B you can just drag and drop to those drives. Bear in mind floppy drives are very small in storage and not all that reliable

Insert your images/graphics Ctrl+C (copy ) then Ctrl + V (paste into document ) into microsoft word, click on the save button, look for A: (or which ever one says 3 1/2 inch floppy), and click save. Then to look back just simply go back on to microsoft word and select the drive which you saved it on and click the doucument!
Hope this helps!
Happy Christmas.

Drag and drop the files into the drive in My Computer, you should have no problems, if an error comes up, this is because you do not have enough space and should use a CD or a USB memory stick
