Photos not showing up

Is anyone else having trouble seeing photos posted in the various forums or, is it just me ? Whenever I click on the area where the photo is I get " this image could not be loaded ".
This is the only site I’m having this issue on.

I only have had issues on some posts that are very old, probably before the forum restructuring. No issues noted with current posts. I’m using iPad for the forum, maybe there are issues with other devices? Have you cleared cache / history etc? Might help?

Disclaimer - I’m not an IT guy, in fact quite the opposite, use any advice as pure hooey and with great caution. :grin:

I dunno, I’m on a laptop and the photos show up fine.

My guess is it’s likely related to a 3rd party photo host used whereby it either no longer exists or the terms and conditions have changed, rendering the image no longer there.
Is it older posts you notice this, or recent posts as well? If recent then insert shrugs shoulders emoji here.

A situation I’m currently dealing with, albeit a tad different than a 3rd party hosting site, but a 3rd party nonetheless is…

I have a 1/200 Trumpeter Titanic build log on this forum. I also had a build log for said model on Model Ship World (MSW). For some of my posts to said build log on this site, I would do a copy of my posted content on MSW and paste it to my FSM build log. Consequently to that method, any images were not uploaded from my computer. Rather, they were uploaded as links to MSW.
MSW was cyber attacked ~May 1, 2026. The result of that was all data on MSW was lost. Total obliteration. I have just discovered today that many images on my FSM Titanic build log are gone. Not surprised. I expected that. Now I have a painstaking task of uploading numerous missing images from my computer to correct/update my FSM build log.

Anyway, not to make this question about me. To reiterate… the answer to your question could be a 3rd party photo hosting site no longer hosting.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Mark

Any post I opened up, old or recent, no pics would show up. Surprisingly today everything seems to be fine :person_shrugging:
