Pictures not visible

Post by Drogyn »

Hi, I've posted a new fic with a banner and now several people say that they can't see the banner and some people say they can.
The image is a jpg image that's uploaded on my personal (paid) webspace and it's located here

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here and why some people can't see it?

If there is no bandwidth restrictions then it should show. However, if you've gone over your bandwidth it won't. Check into your account and find out how much bandwidth you're allowed. Fanatics is a huge place with a lot of users that tend to eat up bandwidth like it's going out of style.

good luck

Recently my sig banner stopped showing. All I can see is a red X. I also can't see various other avatars and sig banners. Just the red X. But some show up just fine.

I checked my bandwidth and that's not the problem. I know other people can see my banners, it's just I can't. When I right click on the banner, and click on "show picture", it still doesn't show up.

I am so confused! Why can other people see it, but I can't?

Sorry I didn't see this sooner. Try a different theme. If that works let us know. There might be something wrong with the html on the theme you're using.

hope that helps

I sent you a pm Jen, but I'll say it here too.

I tried 4 different themes, but I still can't see my story banner or sig banner. Just a red X.

Any other suggestions?

I see your sig picture in every theme and in 3 different browsers. Have you gone to PhotoBucket and checked to see if you can see it there? Also, try putting the url for the just the picture in your browser and see if you can see it that way.

Can you see other people's pictures and other pictures on the page?

Angel, I couldn't see my banners and a few select other people's fic banners/sig banners. Jen told me to delete my cookies, and after I did that, the pics started showing again. So everythings good now.

Thanks!

In Breathless' case it wasn't a theme problem or a coding problem. All that was required to see the picture was to delete the cookies.


So, if you're having problem seeing images try deleting your cookies first.

Hope that helps
Jen
