You could make a custom display that uses webkit to show what you want. Also, please update from 1.3.x to 2.0.1.

Hi devs,

I'm wondering if it is possible to display larger images in Growl? I'm aware that you allow to show icons in notifications along with some arbitrary text. But what if the image itself conveys the notification? I have no text, only images that may or may not contain some text. The images are rather small and don't use much more space than usual text notifications. 
Is there a way to display only an image (of larger size than an icon) within a notification message? 

Thx
Sandro

To elaborate a bit further, there are a number of styles that do this,
for one example, voxgrowl here: http://sparanoid.com/work/slimbox-and-voxgrowl/,
and you can look through the styles list at http://growl.info/styles

However, if you are talking about an app you develop, there isn't
presently a way for an application to request a particular style when
it sends a notification, and while it has been requested and discussed
before, we have not decided whether to implement anything along those
lines yet. Even if we did, applications would likely only be able to
suggest a style, because we value user choice for notification
styling.
