Seems to be some issue with the way OmniWeb is copying the file to the clipboard (or the way the Finder is identifying it when dropped).

FWIW, you can also ctrl/right-click the image and select one of the [Image>Download Image options as a workaround. This will initially download a .php file but it quickly gets re-identified as a .gif file.
Copying the avatar image to clipboard or downloading it as you describe does work (though cumbersome). Dragging it to the desktop as an image was the original request. If you attempt this with OW, the "avatar" drags as "member.php.weblock" which is an HTML, not an image, file (points to the member's info page). OTOH, dragging it from Safari to desktop brings an "image.php.gif" which can be opened by Preview, but doesn't directly bring the image to the desktop. (Camino 1.1a1 drags a file named "image.gif" which can't be opened with Preview?!)
