Title: I wish I could view it.
Post by: jbmarker on February 22, 2012, 04:16:53 PM
I posted sometime ago about not being able to view the majority of the jpegs on this forum.
They appear in the body of the post as an attached jpeg image with the little red X inside a little white box, which usually means it will not load when accessed. I am using Explorer 8 and I have tried Chrome also and I still can't view the photos. When I click on the link I will either get a new tab with the little red X in the little white box, or I will get a tab with a message about not being able to load the picture. This is very frustating. Just wondering if anyone knows what the deal is.

Thanks

Is anyone else having this problem?

I've tried it on a couple of different machines and it seems to work correctly (for me).  But if someone else is having the problem maybe we can compare notes and arrive at a solution.

I've not had any problems. I'm using Internet Explorer 8 with Windows 7.

No problems viewing attached pictures (those with thumbnails visible in the posts). I use Mozilla Firefox.

JB, have you tried to do your own post with JPEG's? I was curious to see if you were able to see your own pic's or if your system settings were blocking others. Here is a photo attached from photobucket.

Here is a Microsoft solution to photo viewing issues.

I can view the bucket jpeg just fine. I checked my Explorer 8 settings and view pictures is selected in the Advanced section.
I just flipped back to Doug Olson's post "Top Hat completed" and the jpegs in his post appear the little white square with the red  X in it and just below it, the paper clip and the underlined jpeg. file. When I double click it, it opens MS Picture Manager opens and all that is in view is the white box with the red X.
I didn't have to click on the bucket jpeg, it was displayed in your post.

I just tried to view the photo that I uploade 15 seconds ago and it looks like the others I described earlier, white box with red X and the file name below. Not good.

Title: Re: I wish I could view it. It Works in Chrome!
Post by: jbmarker on February 26, 2012, 02:44:58 PM
Well I just tried it on my laptop with Chrome and I can see all the jpegs just fine. Evidently it is something with the permissions in Explorer 8. I'll try to figure it out.
Thanks for the suggestions.
