James M. Fisher 51 Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 No images appearing, Ed.(Are you involved with the "hazegray" website?) Link to post Share on other sites
Ed_P 18 Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 They show up when I view this thread using Netscape James M. Fisher. What browser are you using? And firewall? Do you get any error msgs?No, I am not involved with "hazegray", my suggested avatars are non-biased. :'( The site just had some interesting naval related icons which I thought might appeal to ross549. I'm sure there are others out there. Link to post Share on other sites
jar92380 0 Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 i see the avatars from Ed so it may just be a browser setting you haveJames Link to post Share on other sites
ross549 1,256 Posted June 27, 2004 Author Share Posted June 27, 2004 How about one of these?Thanks, EdP, but I am not into ships much, even though I am in the Navy. :'( Link to post Share on other sites
SonicDragon 0 Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 They show up when I view this thread using Netscape James M. Fisher. What browser are you using? And firewall?

Guest Paracelsus Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 Very strange. I'm in mozilla and i had to right click and select "view image" in order to see each picture.Interesting, SD...The same thing happens in FireFox.At first it just shows "User Posted Image", and not even an "x" box like in IE.But they show fine after Right Click>Display Image. :'( Link to post Share on other sites
SonicDragon 0 Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 At first it just shows "User Posted Image", and not even an "x" box like in IE.Yup. Exactly. Link to post Share on other sites

Fisher. What browser are you using? And firewall? Do you get any error msgs?I have checked with IE6 on 2 different PCs and no images appear. Just the red X and "User posted image" message. No special browser settings regarding images. No firewall on the one PC. Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Paracelsus Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 ...and no images appear. Just the red X and "User posted image" message. No special browser settings regarding images.That's what I get in IE6 also, James.Even Right Click and "Display Image" won't bring them up. Link to post Share on other sites
Ed_P 18 Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 ?????!!!!!!!I just refreshed my cache and now all I get is "user posted image" text, not even a X. Not even a link to the actual images. Not sure why maybe a mod changed the links?Sorry.At least ross549 got to see them and that's the important part. Most of them were on this webpage if anyone is still curious.NB Just tried this page in IE and it shows the red x in addition to the "user posted image" text but clicking on the X or text doesn't bring up the images. Very strange.Maybe the new board sw will resolve the problem. Link to post Share on other sites
siebkens 0 Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 I can still see all of the images - using Mozilla 1.6. Link to post Share on other sites
zlim 1,286 Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 siebkens, clear your browser cache then see if you get anything. I get text that is not clickable. (disclaimer: I'm running Firefox .8 not Mozilla). Link to post Share on other sites
SonicDragon 0 Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 my text wasn't really clickable either. but if you right click it anyway is there an option to view the image? Link to post Share on other sites
siebkens 0 Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 Cleared the cache & navigated back to page 1 - I can still see all of the images using Mozilla. :huh:Used IE 6.0 & can see them too! Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Paracelsus Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Amazing, how a simple request to help Ross549 find a new Avatar turned into a Troubleshooting exercise in why Ed's linked images where acting strangely for some of us Perhaps it's time to put this thread back on track and help Ross549 in his quest??

Ed_P 18 Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Perhaps it's time to put this thread back on track and help Ross549 in his quest??Who?? I agree.As a parting observation, the stupid icons were all gone again this morning in both Netscape and IE. But, even though they appeared only as text in Netscape, RIGHT clicking on the text gave me the option to View Image. For every icon that I tried that option the text was replaced with the actual icon/image. How about this ross549? or? Link to post Share on other sites
