Concerning the graphic in the blog post:  I see the graphic just great when I 
go to it directly.  

On the preview page, I see all other images, just not the graphic.  For that I 
get the usual small red X.  (This is with IE 9.0.4 on Windows 7).

DIGGING INTO THE HTML:

If I view source and use the URL that is in the page directly, I am asked 
whether I want to download or view the image first.  The difference may be the 
& escaping (which is not URL encoding) that is done on the page, even 
though the page is not in XHTML.  It is in HTML 4.01 Transitional.  Here's what 
may be the problematic URL:

  
http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/download/file.php?id=13066&mode=view
 

Chrome 16.0.912.75 loads the image (URL above) directly.  The preview page also 
loads, with graphic, just fine.

PS: This URL,

http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/download/file.php?id=13066%26mode=view

Has the same behavior (choice of download or open) when used directly in IE 9.  
It opens directly in Chrome though.  

DIGGING INTO THE HTTP:

I think it is the cookies.  All three flavors of the URL (including "&" direct) 
work the same once I remember to quote the URL here (line breaks added for 
readability):

C:\command>curl -iI 
   
"http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/download/file.php?id=13066&mode=view";

CONFIRMATION

I used IE 8.0.6001.18702 from a Windows XP SP3 system, and it doesn't show the 
graphic either.  However, there is a privacy alert in the status line of the IE 
8 window and when I click it I am told that the cookies from the graphic's URL 
were blocked.

However, even though I allowed all cookies from openoffice.org, the blocking 
continues.  So there is more to it.

It shows up for me.

What happens if you try directly:
http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/download/file.php?id=13066&mode=view

Is there anyone who cannot load the image at that URL?

As far as I can tell, Roller doesn't store images.  It refers to
external ones by URL.
