You need to set the AttachmentDefaults property on the Message object for the file extension of the file you would like to be inline for example for jpg files you would add the following to the AttachmentsDefault property:

  Dim Msg As Message
  Msg.AttachmentDefaults.Add "JPG:Content-dispositon: inline"

The mail control should then encode any JPG file as inline when the message is encoded before being sent.

I apologize, there was a typo in my original reply it should have been:
"JPG:Content-disposition: inline"

If the above still does not work then you should be able to edit the headers directly on the message object:
Message.Headers.Add msgContentDisposition, "inline"

The following code works for me:
'1. Declare a part variable
Dim MsgPart As Part
'2. Add Attachment and assign it to a part variable
Set MsgPart = Smtp1.Message.AddAttachment("C:\test\farmville.jpg")
'3. Set the content ID of the part to be used in the E-mail
MsgPart.Header.Add msgContentID, "iids45637"
'4. Set the content-type to image/jpeg for jpegs
MsgPart.Header.Add msgContentType, "image/jpeg"
'5. Set the content-disposition to inline
MsgPart.Header.Add msgContentDisposition, "inline"

You can find a list of valid MIME content-types if you need one other than jpeg here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_media_type

To use the inline attachment if it is a jpeg (or other image) you would add the following to your html text:
<IMG SRC="cid:iids45637">
