forum changes with regards to how external pics are handled
#1
Hi guys,

During the last few days, I had been able to view external pictures and avatars in firefox quite nicely.

As of today, that feature is gone again (as was prior to server crash) (Now no avatar shows up and I have to click on each link to view pictures, and in some cases, the link opens the thumbnail, then I have to modify the address in address bar to get the actual picture, quite cumbersome)

Just out of curiosity, I was wondering what has changed

thanks

I take that back,

I just realized that the pictures show up when I am not logged in.

But when I do login, all the pictures are gone.

Anybody have any idea what might cause that in Firefox 3.6.3?

thanks

I finally figured this out. It made me feel stupid since it was such an easy fix. And I am shocked that no one replied with the simple answer.

For anyone else that might be wondering, you have to change your forum user options. Click "Quick links" and select "edit options"

under "thread display options" you will see "show avatars" and "show images"

I have no idea why mine were deselected by default. anyway, problem solved.
