how's your link? could you please verify with the HTML export? 

from the manual "Images in HTML export":

By default(1), images are inlined if a link does not have a description.  
So
`[[file:myimg.jpg]]' will be inlined, while 
`[[file:myimg.jpg][the image]]'will just produce a link `the image' that
points to the image.

I think the odt exporter follows such conventions.
