Members Strafe13 Posted June 11, 2013 Members Posted June 11, 2013 I apologize if this has been discussed before, but just in the past few days, I've noticed for the first time that I cannot see most pictures that were posted in various threads. At first I thought it was because I was viewing the forum on my iPad, but I just checked on my PC laptop, and the same problem exists. When reading the threads, I can see a poster (usually one of my faves, Tomcal) describe the pictures in his post, but the pictures simply aren't there. I think when i first started reading this forum, it was hard to see pictures when you weren't logged in, but I'm logged in now and don't see them. Plus, if I recall, a non-forum member would still see the "x-ed" out boxes where the pictures would be. But all I see now is the text of the poster's words, and were it not that I remember certain threads having pictures, or that the post itself references the pictures, often identifying people or buildings and such, I wouldn't be able to tell that pictures had been there. Is this just a problem with my devices and/or my forum account, or is this a larger issue that others have experienced? Or do all of the posted pictures have an automatic expiration date, and I just never knew that? Thanks for addressing my concerns. Quote
Members msclelovr Posted June 11, 2013 Members Posted June 11, 2013 I hesitate to suggest this, but it's sometimes happened to me as well....and then I realise it's because I've gone straight into the Forum sections on my iPad and simply failed to log in first Quote
Members axiom2001 Posted June 11, 2013 Members Posted June 11, 2013 SHOULD THIS be asked in another forum? I was expecting to view so sizzzzzzzzzzzzling, Latin men!! Quote
Guest loneranger Posted June 12, 2013 Posted June 12, 2013 Maybe it is cause of all the bitchy comments from the same old tired queens. Quote
Members Strafe13 Posted June 12, 2013 Author Members Posted June 12, 2013 @Axiom, I chose this forum category because it seems like the most popular, and it's the one I've been most frustrated by the inability to view the pictures. @msclelvr, I was and am logged in now, but still can't see the pictures. No change between iPad and laptop. Quote

No change between iPad and laptop. Thanks for clarifying for me. Postings of writing and photos have been quite lacking at this site/forum as well as a few others where I read and write and view. Guess the summer holiday time has folks doing other things. But, I for one, like to read and view and live vicariously through the experiences of others if I, myself, am not traveling, too! Quote
Guest EXPAT Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 You do have to log in now to see any posts with "attached" photos. And the software did change to require log in each time especially if your cache is cleared when you leave your browser. Quote

However, I am properly logged in (as I have just logged in manually) and the problem remains. Very strange... Quote
