It isn't exactly trivial.

You'll need to examine how either the Documents module deals with it 
(See the Documents class file and it's save_module method which 
overrides CRMEntity; there is code in CRMEntity which makes UIType 69 
save as setype "Image Attachment". (See Contacts and Products modules)

You might also want to look at UIType 61 which is used in ModComments 
and Emails, depending on what you really need to do.

You might find it easier to simply add Project Tasks as a relation to 
the Documents module...
