On the Image control it's the same

<Image Name="theImage" Source="Images/Silverlight_Logo.jpg" Stretch="None" MouseLeftButtonDown="theImage_MouseLeftButtonDown" MouseLeftButtonUp="theImage_MouseLeftButtonUp"  />

I don't know how to set an Image on a button.

<Button HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" >
    <Image Source="Images/Silverlight_Logo.jpg" Stretch="None" />
</Button>

It would be indeed a possibility. But then I have to redesign most of the program

<Style x:Key="LabelButtonStyle" TargetType="Button">
    <Setter Property="OverridesDefaultStyle" Value="True"/>
    <Setter Property="Cursor" Value="Hand"/>
    <Setter Property="Template">
        <Setter.Value>
            <ControlTemplate TargetType="Button">
                <Grid>
                    <Label Content="{TemplateBinding Content}" />
                </Grid>
            </ControlTemplate>
        </Setter.Value>
    </Setter>
</Style>

...

<Button Name="labelButton" Style="{StaticResource LabelButtonStyle}" Content="Label Button" Click="labelButton_Click" />

Could the reason why the left mouse button doesn't work be that I don't ask whether the mouse-down event war fired?

The image fires only the MouseLeftButtonDown event but not the Up-Event.
