    Your library (or you?) are violating the RSS2 specs. The specs say:

    <image> is an optional sub-element of <channel>, which contains
    three required and three optional sub-elements.

    Those three required sub-elements are:

    1. <url>: specifies the URL to a GIF, JPG or PNG image.
    2. <title>: is the equivalent to the alt-attribute in HTMLs
      <img>-tag
    3. <link>: is the URL to your site which should (when the RSS-file is
      rendered) be the target for the link on your image.

    However, you might also want to specify a width, height and description for the image (descriptions can be found in the specs, linked above).

    So a valid RSS-file (just the <image>-part) should look something like this:

    <image>
  <title>press conference</title>
  <url>http://www.website.com/images/image.jpg</url>
  <link>http://www.website.com</link>
</image>
