This is what I'm trying to do too. There are many similar options but I haven't been able to find the best method to accomplish this. And I've done a lot of searching.

Actually I would prefer to be able to put it in the header itself (First attachment of first post in thread), rather than in the Msg body, and have the image show up as a thumbnail in the showthreads displays too.

I wish there was a snippit of code that I could place wherever I want, but I understand how difficult it is to identify the particular image/attachment across different placements.
