I got a PM today from a member, says he can't view the image of Koamon's 00-03 on the Home Page.
Snooping around, I checked with various computers and handheld mobile devices.
I used Chrome, Firefox, Safari browsers, which all worked fine for me.
I actually did get this fail on a PC with Internet Explorer.
Anyone else having this issue?
If it is limited to IE, you know maybe we just shouldn't worry too much about it.
Microsoft has announced an "End of Life" for this browser with Windows 10.
If you cannot see it, chances are that you cannot see the same image in the nomination thread found here, either.

I can see it on my tablet and my laptop.

Looks good on my laptop with Firefox.

Firefox & Safari browsers,  all worked fine for me.

It displays fine on Chrome for me.  I can't even get IE to start anymore on my 7 year old computer running Windows XP.

Became a Shooting Star when I got my 1st guitar.
Back in '66, I was 13 and that was my fix.
Still shooting for stardom after all this time.
If I never make it, I'll still be fine.

Maybe they were referring to not being able to see it without being logged in?

Hi Queequeg,

It's because of the link you used for the image.

</code>

Give me a couple of minutes and I'll try to figure out a link that will work.

Thanks to all for your feedback. And to ST for a solution that works for everyone and across all platforms and browsers.
When I am close to something other than this phone I will amend accordingly.


Queequeg,

Try this...

<code>


http://www.larriveeforum.com/smf/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=48017.0;attach=25380;image

</code>

Note that I've added    ;image to the end of the address for the image.


Edit - the tests below seem to be working.

Good work, ST. That URL fixed it on IE. Thank you.  :thumb

Yup - the home page picture works now - as long as you're logged into the forum (regardless of the browser you're using).

Thank you so much for your attention to this problem, I can now see the photos in all of my browsers... MS IE has become somewhat of a nuisance...  George
