Image Thumbnail on Report - Public Image URL

We are looking to generate an image thumbnail on an issue report from a public image url that is entered on an issue field. 

 

Does anyone know a way to do this? 

 

Example:

Field = Front Label Image

Value = http://images.salsify.com/image/upload/s--txPxJQu---/w6oewelr9h8jaua1ydps.png

Becker,

Something like the below?  For the below I setup conditional formatting to show a green dot first when the field wasn't empty.  I then went into textmode and changed the url of the green dot to be the URL you had above, seems to work.

Hey Kurt, thanks for your reply. We're halfway there! The problem with your approach is that we don't want the same thumbnails across all records. The URL's will be unique to each issue it sits on. Can we think of a way it can be unique for each line by pulling the field value?

We've identified a solution for this and were able to achieve what we set out to do:

displayname=Asset Preview
image.name=Asset Preview (click for full size)
image.valuefield=DE:SGWS | Front label image
link.isnewwindow=true
link.url=DE:SGWS | Front label image
textmode=true
type=image
valuefield=Asset Preview URL
valueformat=

This is great. Can you expand on the how each of the lines work and what they are doing? Thank you.
