It works, its a generated image based on data winamp sends to their server to tell what songs your listeneing to inside the generated image.

dynamic images can easily contain virus', that is why I don't allow them, you could put an auto redirect in them quite easily. Meaning everytime you try to view the topic you can get redirected.
