I tried several ways to URL rewrite. The first way the image mime was clobbered and was consider an octet stream which didnt allow me to view the image in a browser (unless it was using img src). The 2nd way i wasnt convince it worked. Firefox displayed the img but said the length was 0 (i think it only worked bc it was in my cache).
How do i properly rewrite the image /abc/id/title.png to the internal location /static/user/name/id.png
