Surprisingly, the images open just fine on this machine! Imgur sends me the actual .png and not the HTML wrapped version that requires JS. Maybe they look at the agent to decide what to send.

I have no problem retrieving the PNGs from those URLs without Javascript.

I'm not using a browser nor am I using curl.

I do not send a user-agent header.
