Like what php.coder those are just numbers that is generated by facebook to displate the images. Regarding how to do that I don't really know.

for your own use, try, base64 encoding, the image is written as displayable characters and recoded on the fly
the same as images are embedded in email
a likely google search would be multipart mime refers to email but the process is the same

the ([enclosed]) also ([[ ]]) (([[ ]])) ([[[ ]]]), facebook numbers do not actually encode anything, they are references for facebook javascripts to access stored images, references to user id_s, references to anything facebook want to reference, obscured - not encrypted
