Ow.ly URL bug
It seems ow.ly is hosting images off of ow.ly/i/ URLs.
Spaz is removing the /i/ portion of the URL inside tweets.

Do you have an example of a URL from a non-protected account?

Well, I think I found the issue. I would argue that ow.ly made a really terrible decision about how to structure these image URLs -- they should have used a different domain. However, I can patch Spaz to work around this. Pretty swamped though, so I can't guarantee when this will happen. if someone else wants to, that would be helpful

no worries. I'm not an ow.ly user, nor have i noticed the bug before or since.
