    LOAD is not part of the EFFECT or DRAW dialects, so it is being ignored.

    You can use COMPOSE to ensure it gets executed:

    view layout [
    box 100x100 effect compose/deep [
        draw  [
        image (load http://i2.ytimg.com/vi/e3wShd_bX8A/default.jpg)
        ]
    ]

    ]

    Notes:

    • COMPOSE/DEEP because we are two deep in blocks — effect [draw [ … ]]

    • the “native” REBOL code that you want executed is in parenthesis: (load …)
