derekuk Posted July 27, 2020 Share #1 Posted July 27, 2020 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.............

DelF Posted July 27, 2020 Share #2 Posted July 27, 2020 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?

amateur Posted July 27, 2020 Share #3 Posted July 27, 2020 The funny thing is: those are jpg’s hosted at MSW. (The two main reaons for problems) They should be visible, I think..... Jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Posted July 27, 2020 Share #4 Posted July 27, 2020 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.

amateur Posted July 28, 2020 Share #5 Posted July 28, 2020 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....' Jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derekuk Posted July 28, 2020 Author Share #6 Posted July 28, 2020 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................. mtaylor 1 Quote Derek the man from Kent, UK HMS Victory by Derek - Jotika In the pipeline.............
