You can use readfile and output the image headers which you can get from getimagesize like this    remoteImage    http   www example com gifs logo gif    imginfo   getimagesize  remoteImage   header  Content-type    imginfo  mime       readfile  remoteImage     The reason you should use readfile here is that it outputs the file directly to the output buffer where as file get contents will read the file into memory which is unnecessary in this content and potentially intensive for large files
