The reason you can't see your images in email is most email readers stript them out since they can be used for verifying valid email addresses which is a common tactic used by spammers. Your code screams tracking which only proves the point.

There is no way around this as the image filtering is done by the email clients and cannot be controlled by any code you write.

Check out this thread.

I posted a solution whereby you could use Mozilla Thunderbird to fetch the html image code for you which you can place in your script. The image will be embedded and would depend on no links or external content.

Look for my answer with the big screenshot of a lizard.

But, even despite that, users can still block images of all kinds. But emebedded images might be considered more acceptable than linked content - it depends on the client as to how images are handled.
