Title: Pics not loading??
Post by: Rick Meredith on June 14, 2011, 19:44:56 pm
Anyone else have problems with pictures in posts on The Lounge not loading?

I keep getting the broken image icon but it's kind of random thing. Sometimes reloading the page helps. Other times reloading makes it worse. I lose pics I had before. This happens on both PCs and Macs and different locations. On the PC I use Firefox and Chrome and on the Mac it's pretty much only Chrome. It can affect one, more or all pics in a post. I think it only happens for pics that are hosted here.

It's been going on for quite a while.

Same here. Most of the time if I wait till the page fully loads before scrolling it works better, but I hate waiting  ;D

X2 with Safari on a Mac. Sometimes it helps to reload the page, usually I just open them in Preview as a download. I suspect the browser's cache is full,
but don't hold me to it.

It is caused by a problem with our provider. Some limits on number of request at one time thing. A bit annoying, but there is a cost involved if it is so annoying we need to move....

Right click on broken images and say "show image" works good for pc.

Hey Trond... it is no way near that annoying for me.
Just wanted to see if it was something simple.

Thanks for all you do in keeping this place running smoothly!
