Thats what I got when I right clicked and went to view image?? Using Firefox.
Weird don't you think?

Any thoughts?

 

iono dude, did it take a while to load the page cuz it might have timed out and went all spazzy on u. btw heres the thread with the tweaks. http://forum.phun.org/showthread.php?t=9539&highlight=firefox+about:config

 

No when i clicked the image on the Ludacris pics in the babe forum to check if I could see pics it loaded the page straight away, just no pic obviously. I right clicked view image and thats when it came up. Thanks for the thread link.

 

ya dude i dont know wtf. my sig is hosted by imagevenue and its not a red x so i know im not banned by it but i just cant understand wth is going on and why i cant see the big pic. imma go try and update my browsers. brb

 

I've just udated the settings using the that thread and its still not workin.

I'm racking my brain here, but at least i'm not alone!

 

I just used imagevenue to upload a pic, it uploaded fine, I posted fine but when I went to click the hotlink on the post I just made it wouldn't show the larger pic! WTF is going on?

 

same thing was happening to me at other forums, regardless of the browser i was using (IE, firefox, or opera). a friend sent me here for some tips on correcting the problem but nothing here worked at all. out of frustration i started messing with my firewall (zonealarm). after customizing the privacy settings to accept all cookies from imagevenue i no longer had a problem viewing the larger images. you should give that a try. hope it helps.

 

Thanks for the tips but i've tried it all and still no joy!

Phuckin hell!

 

chunko NOOOOO! well i guess misery will not have company anymore the firewall fix worked. i shoulda did that already, im such an idiot. i turned up the settings not too long ago, the same time i noticed the problems. i had the same problem with launch.com not to long ago. i think it has something to do with the advertisements on the site (imagevenue). in short - i can see the large pics now. hoooray!

 

hey chunk, did you check your firewall too?

 

well for the record i also run za but im sure that there are similar settings among all firewalls. all i did was tweak the settings for cookies & imagevenue

 

Ok, so i'm totally fuckin useless when it come to computers.
Assistance is needed!
I use norton internet security & anti-virus, where do I check my cookies etc to fix the problem? Please help!

Thanks for the step-by-step guide sandino! I've done all thats there and still no luck.
It did start to load (as in the green bar not the pic loading) but then failed. I clicked again and nothing!
It really fuckin pissing me off so i'm gunna go to bed and try again tomorrow.
Do you think a system restore would do anything because up untill 1 week ago I had no problem viewing the images with imagevenue? Thanks again for all you help kids. See you all on the other side (well saturday at least!)

 

Hey Gents...

I asked several of my friends to check the images with thier computers and they all are getting the same result as we are. No Pic shows after clicking the link.

Now what?

 

i'm having the same problem too. im sooo pissed off. im seeing red x in my fuckin dreams i swear. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...!

 

try going to your firewall and check your "adds/banners" settings, prolly in the "privacy" section of your firewall, mess with it a lil, like lowering it, making it higher. maybe it will work?

 

Billsnow and Burtie83, i've been there done that! Really anoying aint it! Well to get rid of the problem I uninstalled Norton IS from my PC and installed McAfee instead and I can now see again. Drastic? Yup but I was pissed off with Norton IS anyway. If you do have NIS installed on your PC, just disable it quickly and see if you can see the image. If so then thats your problem. I'm basing this on NIS so to save me typing more troubleshooting stuff give that a go and if it aint that post back and we can try afew other things.

 

hey guys
i've been having all the same problems...i followed chunks advice and switched it off and then switched it back on and now shit works. i guess it jogged something. hope it helps

 

Thanks for the info. Now if we can only get people with this problem to come here and look at it LOL
