--on GitHub:

"This package adds functionality to inline images into an org-mode buffer.
The images can be present locally on the filesystem (not implemented yet)
or downloaded from the internet automatically."

"Use

Call org-inline-image when the point is on the link to inline it there. The
link text will be overlayed with the image. To hide the image, hit h (or
call org-inline-image-hide) while the point is on the image. Gif images are
animated automatically when inlined. To animate it again, hit a (or call
org-inline-image-animate)."
