[support] Showing an image in a content area

Some debugging ideas:

1) Go to the page on which the image does not display and do "View  
Source" in your browser.  See if the img tag is in the HTML.  If it's  
not, then you've narrowed the problem down to Drupal generating the  
wrong HTML.

2) If the img tag *IS* in the generated HTML, cut and paste the URL  
from the src="..." into a browser.  If can't get to the image that  
way, you might have a permissions problem (private files, nodeaccess,  
etc).
