Hi folks

 

Does anyone know why when looking at other peoples posts I only see little boxes with a question mark inside of them instead of the photos.............

Hi Derek

 

I got the same when I visited the original post. I can only guess that the photos were originally hosted on a site that is no longer available. I assume you can view most photos OK?

The funny thing is: those are jpg’s hosted at MSW. (The two main reaons for problems) They should be visible, I think.....

No they are not hosted here.....those are broken links from a third party hosting site.  Cant do anything about it.     

 

Folks should really really not do that.

 

They should actually upload their photos here.

Sorry, I thought they were hosted here, as the link-address that pops up hovering over those question marks is something like this:

https://modelshipworld.com/uploads/monthly_09_2014/post-96-0-67177900-1412022422.jpg

That refers to a non-existent file, but with msw in the address.... That made me think 'should be visible, but is not....'

Many thanks guys for your replies .......... I thought it was a problem only I experienced. 

 

Jan, I don't think they were your photos......... they belonged to "Shipyard Sid" 

 

I have just checked and it's still the same result.................

Nope, just curious when you mentioned the problem.
