Firefox Images

[Bobmi357]

Sometimes in threads I see the inline images, and sometimes I don't. This is the latest release of Firefox. Can anyone suggest a reason why I wouldn't see the images?

It's disconcerting to see people commenting on images I can't see for some reason.

Does this only happen on the Lit boards? Can you give an example of a thread you can see the images in and one you can't?

Yeah sometimes people take the images down or sometimes the site stops hosting the image etc pretty common on lit.
Espsecially you will notice some of the pic threads and other threads as well can be old.
A thread started in 2001 will have a lot of missing pics.
If firefox is missing something there should be a little picture frame looking thing where the image should be. If there is just nothing there then it's more likely the image has been removed.

It depends on how people post the pictures. If they have their picture on another site, they can use the IMG tag, and have it show up in their post, like this:

http://kennl.dk/div/newbike640.jpg

Or if they just post the link, it'll show up like this: http://kennl.dk/div/newbike640.jpg

And finally it's also possible to attach a picture to a post, and it'll show up as a link in the bottom of the post

The last time that happened to me, Bob, the "load images from originating website only" option had been checked somehow. Like you said, nothing showed up.

I get it sometimes in Opera, I usually click on reply to see if the image link is still there and copy paste it into the browser, that usuall works if the link is still active.
