Thank you!

Try to embed images with a relative path to your distribution instead of http://homepage.eircom.net/~jmcnamara/perl/images/a_simple.jpg

update

Interestingly there seems to be a trend to foreign links to keep the distribution small.

But one side effect then are broken links like in https://metacpan.org/pod/Math::Fractal::Noisemaker

probably a better strategy would be to mirror the images at upload time (?)

data-URLs might also work. They are directly embedded in the document, so they should not break. Some ancient browsers (Internet Explorer) can't handle them, but most browsers can. A little disadvantage is that data URLs use base64, so they inflate the image by one third. One should optimize the images for size before converting them to base64.

Yes i found discussions pointing to them.

I think the main concern is to keep CPAN small.

Not sure if there is a quota limiting uploads.

For instance when running CPAN::Mini I wouldn't be too happy to have my disk bloated with image files of an obscure module.

OTOH Mini allows setting filters.
