You would only be in violation of that patent if you use the specific process claimed in that payment in what you're doing. Patents don't cover broad concepts like "transmitting images over the internet". A patent title might be something broad like that, but the patent itself actually covers a very specific set of methods that have to be unique at the time they are patented. Unfortunately, many people seem to assume that means the patent give the holder the exclusive right to "transmit images over the internet"... which is a perspective useful for getting alarmed about patents, but not true in reality.
