Post by: ABCbits on October 06, 2023, 10:45:09 AM
I just write a reply, but image i include never shown even when i tried using different source (imgbb, talkimg and other image hosting). I also checked few thread which i know have image (such as talkimg announcement[2]), but none of the image shown. Is it just me or it happens to everyone?

I just checked from my end, and the image is showing from my end. Even your comment in the link you dropped the image is visible. I just checked from my end, and the image is showing from my end. Even your comment in the link where you dropped the image is visible. Maybe it might be some network error from your end; just a guess.


Just quoted the image from your last comment and it’s visible from my end.

Same as Orpichukwu above I am seeing images with no issue.
Standard thoughts, did you reboot? Clear browser cache? How does it look on another device you have 2nd PC, phone, tablet, whatever?

I clicked on the link that you post and I saw the image. I am talking about your first link. Probably the problem is from your side not the forum.

You can look at the image option on your browser settings, it could have been changed to text only. But this would be the case if other images are not also showing for you.

Seems like issue is with you only. Your post and joker_josue's post showing image perfectly to,  also this in Orpichukwu quoted posts it's fine.

I don't think issue is with Bitcointalk image proxy, check your machine might be some antivirus or adblocker is blocking the images.

I happened to me once, usually I block images specifically from websites like reddit (due to NSFW nature) while browsing and I accidently blocked bitcointalk too and after spinning head around figured out issue was from my side :)

Like everyone else the image is showing on my system clearly without any error. The issue is from your side and it's not a forum issue. I recommend you to clear the cache of your browser and disable the extensions which might be casing such error. I think the issue is with the browser that you're using and clearing out the cache might solve the issue.

Here too, I used Firefox to access the forum and there are no problems displaying images, and the image you mentioned appears in my side.
I expect this to apply to all browsers, there may be problems with Tor, but since no one has reported this it is best to delete the cookies or check settings.

On my side there's no issue regarding the access to the forum and images, did you check if your connection is stable or might drop? if that's the case try to use the command line in Command Prompt
Code:
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
to refresh your network issue, or else try another browser so possible might be the cache.

Yap, the problem is definitely on your side. For me, too, all images are shown completely normal.

I know that this last week, there were DNS problems with several internet providers.
In Portugal, at least one provider had DNS problems. I was affected, that day, for a few hours I was unable to see images on the forum.

Imagine my despair when I entered the forum and saw that the images hosted on TalkImg were not appearing. Until I realized that the problem was with my Internet provider, I went around trying to solve a problem, which in reality doesn't exist with my service.  :P

I can see the image you posted correctly, it displays and has no problems on my part.
I also tested it by reposting your image using the Imgbb service, but this is also fine. As a result, this seems to be just your problem, perhaps due to your internet connection or provider.

I was going to say, take an SS and show us how is it showing on your side hehe. Well, Things are working fine by my side, I don't know what might be causing this on your side, but maybe you should try to clear the history cache or maybe change the browser for a while to just check whether it is an issue of the browser or of the internet.

Maybe at the time of the creation of this thread, they might be down, but now some time has passed so that might be the reason that we are not seeing any issues now.

Yup here is also everything is normal.
-May be internet problem on their side
- May be a browser problem. Firefox is sometimes make me confusing in many site. Google Chrome works very smoothly in this case

Talkimg is working very smooth for the forum so it is very unlikely that the forum will have image proxy issues now

This is probably on the browser side. Tried using Firefox on my mobile phone and it seems working for me and not an issue. If clearing cache won't solve the problem then maybe uninstall and reinstall the browse may have work or update to the latest version might work. Whenever I came across an issue within a browser is I always uninstall and reinstall the app if clearing chache won't work in my case but now, no issue at the moment.
