Have a look at the slots of the object returned by:

'http://www.cs.ucsb.edu/~urs/oocsb/self/release/smalltalk.gif' asUrl

If you have a webpage you can display it for example with:

'http://www.bluishcoder.co.nz/self/imagetest.html' asURL getPageForUser

I have a screencast here going through some of this:
