Status:       patch (code needs review)

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=firefox
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.

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.
