Well, you a half right. The picture is not actually in the event (regardless what kind), a link to the picture is.
But its not a regular link, its a blossom link. Blossom is this seperate system that evolved out of Nostr where files can be stored on servers with their hash as the ID. Currently your pictures are stored on the primal server. But if lets say the primal server dies tomorrow, you can reupload the picture (as in the file) on another server, and the protocol is such that clients will figure out that the innitial link is dead and look if it is hosted elsewhere (based on another event where you inform the world what blossom servers you use), and a such heal itself automatically.
So your innitial post has this link:
blossom . primal . net /b5a597df5cf2bd0b5427583893e356a01df314e36fe5aaba9595675228f3f990 . jpg
But you can also store it on other servers to ensure that the picture will pop up in the future as well, even if primal goes away.
(Oh and the whole point of Nostr is that Olas is not a platform, its a client :) ).
Well recon that is enough for day 1 on Nostr.
