Hello, I have been working with Limewire Pro quite a bit since buying it (now at v4.0.7 which seems to fix the incompatible magnet link issue I posted earlier -- great to see that was easy enough to fix! The example Bitzi magnets I provided at
http://mantiscorp.com/people/aew/limewire/ all seem to be accepted by Limewire without a problem now). I notice that LW does support some basic HTTP (Web server) capabilities, but haven't been able to create a standard Web page (HTML) that can fetch image content from Limewire and render it on a page. That is, I'd like to do something like this on a Web page and have the image that's displayed on the Web page be delivered to the Web browser (for rendering) via Limewire:
<img src="http://localhost:45100/Trapped.jpg" />
I've tried many variations on the above URL in an attempt to display the image on my Web page (including using magnet links in the src attribute instead of a localhost
http:// URL), but the best that happens is that Limewire is activated (comes to front/get the focus) -- the browser never gets the file, so it doesn't display it.
I know, for example, that on my particular system Limewire has a JPEG image named "Trapped.jpg" in the shared folder and would like to display that image on a standard HTML Web page. Does Limewire support such a thing (serving files to non-Gnutella clients, such as a Web browser?)

btw, I'd like to test the sample magnet links at a larger scale (more users) so please feel free to download these small media files for wider testing:
