 WARNING!
 You probably shouldn't use this technique since images never show up
 if the script isn't loaded for one reason or another. Some reasons:
 - The content is viewed using a RSS reader
 - The content is viewed with a read-it-later service
 - The user has a flaky connection (hotel wifi, Dutch train, etc)
