(PENDING)Thumbsnap images not displaying?
Discussion
Am I the only one who can't see thumbsnap photos embedded in posts?
If I quote a post I can copy the image link and view it in another tab, but they don't show up in the posts. Other hosting services seem to work fine.
Win 10 / Firefox 49.0.2 (but its been that way for a long time with previous versions too, I just didn't bother posting about it).
Actually I've just checked and they do display on Android 6 / Firefox, maybe its a Win 10 issue or something in my browser settings?

Half the posts on that thread have thumbsnap pics embedded which I can't see.
A few specific examples from that thread being posts by:
eltawater
jamesbilluk
DibblyDobbler
Elderly
nigelpugh7
Images hotlinked from other hosting sites like flickr etc are displaying as normal, I generally use flickr myself.
If its only me that has the problem then its not a big deal, but may be worth looking into.

It's happening for me too. My post in page 1 of this thread...

... was linked to in page 3. I can't see the actual pic in either the linked post or my original (I went back to try and edit it but it's persistent). It's the same on my phone, leading me to believe the error is with Thumbsnap.

I've just noticed that many some of the thumbsnap images aren't displaying. Who has been meddling with the forum viewing privilege settings 
Edited to add that some of the thumbsnap images aren't displaying whilst others are, what is more perplexing is that they can be images posted on the same thread!

Other postings in this thread are experiencing the same problem.http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

I realise this is an old thread but I seem to be having the same problem with displaying ThumbSnap photos on a Mac. As someone said a couple of years ago it seems to be a bit random in that occasionally I see one or two amongst a few in a post but, more often than not, I just see the blue squares.

For me, it's one of my ad/privacy blockers that causes this - either privacy badger or privacy possum. Every now and again I have to re-whitelist it.
Following your post I had a look at the preferences and disabled the pop-up blocker which sorted it – thank you for the nudge in the right direction.Gassing Station | Website Feedback | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
