When does this happen?

IF When using OpenRouter as an image generation provider with a model like google/gemini-2.5-flash-image-preview, the current Open WebUI integration does not support the base64-encoded image response format.

How others solved it

THEN Update the Open WebUI image generation settings to properly handle the OpenRouter API's base64 image response. This involves modifying the API call to the OpenRouter endpoint and parsing the returned base64 data to display the generated image in the chat interface.
