The problem here is that the TW5 server components cannot (yet) serve
individual image tiddlers over HTTP. ie, you can't display the image
tiddler "myimage.jpg" by visiting http://127.0.0.1/tiddlers/myimage.jpg.

That's correct, the [img[]] syntax was implemented in 5.0.10-beta, released
on April 19th.

Does it work if you link to a http:// website?
