From the developer
tepelstreel's own description of RSS Image Feed, lightly tidied.
The RSS Image Feed doesn’t create a feed of images, but ataches the first image of the post to your feeds. Normally only the content has images showing. With our plugin there will be a clickable image even in the excerpt and in the content there will be only one image instead of all the images of the post. Since version 2.2 it works as a multisite plugin as well.
The plugin was tested up to WP 4.5 It should work with versions down to 2.7 but was never tested on those.
