I've updated this issue with a new patch that adds a new "preview_url" field to store a screenshot image url. This patch also provides for using the existing screenshots field to show a "more previews" type link. On 3/6/06, Dries <drupal-devel@drupal.org> wrote:

Code comment: we should wrap a check_url() around the screenshot URL (depending on the format). We should add an alt-attribute for level 1 accessibility.
What happens with projects who configured a screenshot link? The Drupal project's screenshot link, for example, points to a gallery (see http://drupal.org/project/drupal). Maybe we need to add a second URL so we can do stuff like they do at the Firefox plugin directory (see
https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?id=220&application=firefo... and note the 'more previews' link below the screenshot).
Would you be able to work on this some more, so we can implement this properly? I'd be happy to help test/review such functionality and roll it out on drupal.org.

Per the related discussion [1] on the infrastructure mailing list, there needs to be a way to embed an image in the description of a project. This is particularly useful for showing theme screenshots. [1] http://lists.drupal.org/archives/infrastructure/2006-02/msg00154.html

Here's a patch that uses the existing screenshots db field for the img tag source.

Just a comment on this patch. The intent of this feature request was to allow screenshot images to be displayed for "theme" projects. But the patch doesn't limit it to any particular project type. My assumption is that it could be controlled in the stylesheet.
