So, to redirect the browser to another server when downloading images 
 would the following work (inside
a virtualhost declaration)?
eg when the browser asks for  http://www.guest.cx/images/family.png  I 
want it to be redirected to
http://images.guest.cx/images/family.png

Would the following work?

Rewrite Engine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/images
RewriteRule ^/images/(.*)$ http://images.guest.cx/images/$1 [R=301]
