. I.e.

/customers/{userdomain}.png   (hosted as a standalone website)

/dashboardapi/imagebrowser/Image?path=customers%2F{userdomain}.png  (hosted inside emite dashboardservice)

/dashboardapi/imagebrowser/Image?path=customers%2F{linking}.png  


The userdomain placeholder will be replaced by current user's first userdomain. This is good for sharing pages with a company logo based on user's userdomain, provided the company logo name is the same as the userdomain name.
The linking placeholder will be replaced by the linkfilter sent from other datablocks.
