I see. Thought that OverBite had some html support, but I understand now 
that it relies on some Android internal bits.

The problem might be then related to the fact that android doesn't know 
about gopher:// URLs, so it can't download the image itself (?) If so, 
maybe embedding the image right into the html code could be some kind of 
workaround? Something like:
<img src="data:image/png;base64,xxxx...>

Just wondering, I'm no Android expert :)
