GET /20171116/images/[source specific]
All image lookups are rooted at the /images/ path. Clients replace [source specific]
with the query data specific to the image they are looking for.
All queries must contain the following:
There are two types of Discogs image lookups. The first is using the Discogs image ID, the second allows an "indexed" lookup, returning the nth image.
A Discogs image lookup, using the image ID, is of the form:
GET /20171116/images/discogs/[discogs release id]/[discogs image id]
This returns the specified image from Discogs, from our image cache if possible. If the images doesn't exist, returns a HTTP 404 error code.
The nth image for a given release can be returned using an index integer. /1 is reserved
for the primary image for a Discogs release. If there is no primary image, the first secondary image is returned.
There are no guarantees made about the order in which images are returned.
