Title: Missing Pictures?
Post by: Graanvlokkie on 27 May 2011, 10:18

I am not sure what the problem is, but when I view this forum every time someone embeds a picture which is hosted on a certain third party service I cant see the picture at all but see a block with a toad frozen in an ice block, with a message:

Quote

Domain Unregistered.

To view register at:
bit.ly/imageshack-domain

It is a bit annoying because I see this frozen frog alot as peoples avatars, signatures and recruitment posters as sson as they are hosted at this place.

Is it just me? This is the only forum where I pick this problem up.

Sounds like something that could happen to chinese internet subscribers. :D

More seriously, I don't have any clues to help :/

That's rather bizarre, but I don't believe it is related to the forum itself. I haven't put any settings against hotlinking images or anything of that sort, so it's likely to be something going on with the third party sites. Sounds like it may be on your end though.

And the list goes on, apparently ImageShack is making people register their domains for linking (in some cases). And from some others that I've read, it's sometimes random about who it affects and if/when it affects them. *shrugs* Take it for what you will.

I've been using ImageShack since it came out, but there have been many reasons to switch in the last year.

I think this will be the deciding factor. TinyPic it is from now on.

Personally, no browser that I use (besides EVE's ingame browser) is able to show TinyPic images.
