A complex number is like x+iy = 3+i6 and "i" is the imaginary unit.
A formula like w=(z^3-1)/(z^3-i) when graphed, makes interesting art. See the
below link for a picture.

An imaginary number is a multiple of the square root of -1. A complex number is a number comprising a real part and an imaginary part.
No difference. The set of complex numbers includes the set of imaginary numbers.
Yes, imaginary numbers are a subset of complex numbers.
A complex number has a real part and a (purely) imaginary part, So imaginary numbers are a subset of complex numbers. But the converse is not true. A real number is also a member of the complex domain but it is not an imaginary number.
An imaginary number has the form b*i, where b is any real number, and i is the imaginary unit number sqrt(-1). A complex number is in the form a + b*i, where a and b are any real number. Complex numbers are called complex, because they combine numbers from the real domain and the imaginary domain.I thought the Wikipedia article was very good. Also, Answers.com has a video about complex and imaginary numbers.
Complex numbers extend the concept of real numbers by introducing an imaginary unit, denoted as "i." Real numbers can be considered a subset of complex numbers with the imaginary part equal to zero. Complex numbers include both a real and imaginary component, allowing for operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
