It's not currently possible with HSSF, sorry. See the warnings on the two key methods:

http://poi.apache.org/apidocs/org/apache/poi/hssf/usermodel/HSSFSheet.html#createDrawingPatriarch%28%29
http://poi.apache.org/apidocs/org/apache/poi/hssf/usermodel/HSSFSheet.html#getDrawingPatriarch%28%29

You should either place all your images in in one go, or switch to XSSF (where the file format makes it easier to support)

This problem should be fixed in trunk.

Please try with a nightly build - see download links on http://poi.apache.org/
or build yourself from SVN trunk, see http://poi.apache.org/subversion.html
