I sent a response about this earlier, but you should
research CSRF and XSS.

It does not matter that the browser shows a broken image if
it has already sent the HTTP request. There is no special
HTTP request for checking whether the Content-Type is
really an image without the receiving Web server taking any
action. A GET is a GET.
