If I can't use lo_import what method do you suggest I use for a large object
(in this case images).

If what you are asking is how can I use lo_import from a remote client,
you can't, unless the file you are importing is on the server.

Various documents, including PostgreSQL, suggest modifications such as
- \lo_import, lo_import(), oid lo_import - to make the statement work
on the client side.
I can't make them work. What am I missing?
