I was interested and fiddled abou it. And this seems to work without any extra podparser.

Download this code to pod_img.pl 

for (1.10) {
  print;
}

=for html 
   <img src="data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAADIAAAAyCAY

print "dummycode";

[download]
and call 
pod2html pod_img.pl >pod_img.html

[download]
the resulting html-file shows an image in most modern browsers! (Officially also in IE7, but I couldn't test it! So please tell me if ...)

PLEASE NOTE: The image data is in one long line, the linebreaks were inserted by the perlmonks-formatter.

Cheers Rolf
