Can't view some photos......

jsschrei Oct 21, 2008 03:15 PM

Can anyone help me understand why? About 1/2 to 1/3 of the photos posted to the forum show up as a box with a red X in it when I open the thread. Anyone know why? Are there certain image file types that need a download or special program on the computer to view? Do I need to enable/diable soething on my computer? Also, it only seems to be photos in the forums. I can view photos in the classified section of Kingsnake without problem, for example.

Anyone's advice or input is greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Jessica

From work or home? Some business networks block certain hosts. For example I use a certain host and I have had people tell me in the past that they were unable to see my pictures from their work computers. Even if I send them the link in an email they can't see it. But if I attach the pics they see them fine.

From both my personal notebook computer and my work desktop

Here is an example: In Markus Jayne's post, I could view the pic of his axanthic pied, but NOT the pic of the others that were in his post. Why is that? Is it the way that they were posted and I can only view one type?

Thanks for your help.

Oh another reason (Axanthic Pied Thread For Example) is the host requires you to be a memeber and if you aren't a member you can't see the pic. So the first pic in that thread I cannot see either because I'm not a member of the forum that hosts the pic.

I was typing my response as you posted this one I think.

OK, that is probably why I can't see that one... but what about a lot of the others?

Thanks
