What module will show pictures in the feed?

Is there anything special I have to do to get the pictures to show up?

I just downloaded Planet and tried a feed that I know has images and I am not getting them on my page.

Am I missing something in the settings? I didnt see anything in preferences section or in the section for adding a new rss feed, which I dont understand why is called blogs.

Anyway, additional help or recommendation is appreciated.

So far I've installed

XMLine
RSSC Headline
RSS Center
Planet
RSSFit
ect..

....I think I have pretty installed everything listed in the modules repository and non seem to show the images other than the "logo" of the feed.

Is it just my feed that is bad? I'm new to this so I have no clue. Here is the feed, it shows img's listed so I figured it should work:

Try the xhld module. In addition to displaying images in RSS, it's also clonable. You can have up to 5 instances of it on your site.

I've set it up here on a friend's site

Ok, I downloaded this one and installed and still no pictures. Do I have to create a writable file or something on the server for the images? Am I overlooking something else in the settings of the module.

Arggggggggggh!

It shows the article fine but then there is an expand part that is the photo....ex:

Thousands of football fans line the hills surrounding the practice fields at St. Vincents College, where the Pittsburgh Steelers hold their summer training camp in Latrobe, Pa. on Saturday, Aug. 5,...   Expand .#160;» more....

When you're filling in the settings for the RSS feeds, there's are two options that concern allowing HTML and showing the full descriptions in the feed. Both have to be set to Yes.

It's not you, it's the feed. I tried to validate it on a couple of sites and was told it has some bad encoding. Text shows up, but not images.
