Subject: Bungie's Spacer image not working on Android internet

Per Audacia Ad Astra

There are some exceptions, but images I can't get via computer are acquirable via Android internet. I am using Google Chrome if the browser affects accessibility.

ORIGINAL POST FOR REFERENCE
Here I am, on my HTC Desire S, roaming Bungie.net making the most of my unlimited internet, and one day I accidentally hold down on the screen for too long to find that I am able to view and download any images I want on the website.

Now if you right click an image on this website, ON A COMPUTER you either get the link of the spacer, or you don't get the option to copy the image or the image URL.

But, on my Android phone, I can do this with any image I want - and the spacer doesn't really exist. So if the spacer is there to stop website visitors from getting Bungie's images, Android users can get any image they want on this website provided the image is visible on screen or a link is available to it.

Know anything about this, Bungie.net Web Team? Just a heads up.

EDIT: Give me an example of an image you can't get on this website via computer and I'll get it on my Android phone, then upload it to Photobucket if necessary to show you it's possible.

I think the spacer is only there so that all images can be set as backgrounds in CSS, with the spacers providing the ability to basically add links to these background images.

edit: if you want an image from the site, it's pretty easy to get anyway. especially if you use something like Firebug.

I don't think they're hiding them.

How have you managed to do that without copying the spacer link?

Truth. There are tons of ways to get to the website image assets here. Source code, element inspection, "View Page Info", etc. The spacer exists for layout reasons.
