Each image will output to its own output file labeled out.i_0 where i runs from 1 to N_image - 1.  The frequencies in these files will be garbage unless all of the representations for a particular q-point are contained in one image.  After you run the image-parallelized run, you must copy the data-file.*.*.xml files (not the data-file.*.xml files) to the _ph0/(prefix).phsave/ directory and run again on one image with recover=.true. in your input file.  This will produce the correct frequencies in the output file and the (prefix).dyn* files.
