Hello all, I am new here and I was hoping that someone could help me out.

I am looking to see if there is a way to make an image for SQL installation so that future intallations can be installed the same.

I'd suggest scripting the installation so that it is repeatable. This is very easy to do in SQL Server 2008.

You could check out the FineBuild product too: http://weblogs.sqlteam.com/tarad/archive/2008/08/13/1-click-installation-for-SQL-Server-2005---FineBuild.aspx
