Silverlight - Image Not Loading from URI at Runtime?

I've added an image element to my Silverlight app, and while the image pulls right up when in design mode, it doesn't load at all when running the app.

Code is:

<Image Height="95" 
       HorizontalAlignment="Left" 
       Margin="12,541,0,0" 
       Name="imgBannerAd" 
       Stretch="Fill" 
       VerticalAlignment="Top" 
       Width="828" 
       Source="http://myurl.com/images/theimage.png" 
       />

What's the deal? I'd tried running the file via the local hard drive and localhost, neither has any effect.

This occurs when you test your file using the Visual Studio generated test html file, loaded directly from disk.

If you create an Asp.Net application to host your Silverlight XAP, the problem should go away.

I would check that

you don't have a cross domain issue; Peter Bromberg: Handling Cross-Domain Images and Gifs and Tim Heuer: Hosting cross-domain Silverlight applications
some versions of Silverlight can have png image problems (never noticed this myself) helpful link
