Image Visiblity in the Forum

Post by Finis »

The goal of this thread is to find ways of showing images here that work for all visitors.

Some people have not been able to see some images. The troubles seem to be with links to images and not with images simply uploaded to the forum in a post.

Recommendations:
  • For link to uploaded image in the forum:
Remove the following from the end of the link;
&mode=view
  • For links to imageshack.us:

No fix so far.

Reported Troubles:
  • I have not had any trouble seeing images here.
  • Trueblue could not see an image (Feb. 2011 MMC winners gallery) posted with this link:

Code: Select all

download/file.php?id=6428&mode=view
He could see it with:

Code: Select all

download/file.php?id=6428
  • LeonRegis could not see images from imageshack.us.
Anyone have a fix?

Does ImageShack allow direct linking?

Yes, ImageShack does allow embedding files into web pages. However, in order for ImageShack to continue to provide free image hosting, we ask that you do not modify the linking code in any way. Also, under some circumstances, some domains will need to be registered with us if users on that domain wish to direct link to images hosted on ImageShack. Please visit our Domain Registration page if that is the case:
