      summary: Proxy for the imageserver.
      description: Proxy for the [imageserver API](http://www.hexaplant.com/pixeldragon/3-access-images.html). This is necessary for the frontend. The images at the image server are hashed so that 
        it's possible to restrict access to them. This method checks if the user (if credentials are provided) is authorized to access the image and if it is, it uses the configured secret to create 
        the hash under which image server knows the image. It then accesses the image server proxying all the parameters and proxies back the response.
