To serve an image file through Lasso:
Use the [Content_Type] and [Include_Raw] tags. The following example uses the [Content_Type] tag to set the MIME type of the returned file to image/gif, the standard for GIF image files. The [Include_Raw] tag is then used to return the raw source of a file Picture.gif contained in the Images directory.
Notice that no white space is included between the two tags. Any stray characters will appear to be part of the GIF file and could cause problems.
[Content_Type: 'image/gif'][Include_Raw: '/Images/Picture.gif']
