Xingu Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 I'm getting DSCXXXX instead of pictures. Why????I am still seeing photos. Can you be more specific, are you not seeing any photos at all or is it just in certain posts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xingu Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 I can see all the photos. Not sure what the problem could be. I will bring this to Dave's attention, maybe he has some ideas about what could be causing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
my66s55 Posted November 2, 2017 Author Share Posted November 2, 2017 Problem solved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteski Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 So, what was the solution. It might be helpful to tothers (more so than just "problem solved"). Funny thing is that I have just been reading the forum for a while (problem-free) until I just into the same issue in http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/127199-big-scale-e100-pickup/?do=findComment&comment=1845300 This is what I see in that post: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
my66s55 Posted November 2, 2017 Author Share Posted November 2, 2017 A couple of weeks ago I loaded an add on called Privacy Badger to Chrome. It stops trackers. It also stopped these pictures from being viewed. I turned it off for this sight and one other and all is well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doorsovdoon Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Thought I'd post here instead of starting a new thread. I remember the site went through an update where the pictures now take time to load, that's ok, but has something been changed again? When viewing others posts, the pictures aren't loading at all only one or two if I'm lucky. Anyone else having issues with pictures not loading lately? Might be a problem my end, who knows, but it's been like this for two or three days now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xingu Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Sometimes people upload HUGE files to this site, rather than resizing and using a lower resolution. Those files will take a long time to load, especially over a poor connection or WiFi. Then this will be compounded when someone quotes the post and keeps all the large photos in the quoted text. This is one possible cause to the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteski Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Is there any way to have the forum software downsample the uploaded files automatically during upload? Another forum I frequent does that. And someone quoting a thread with dozen of large photos, just to reply with "Nice!" or "Good job!" really peeves me! Especially, is several people do that. My scroll wheel finger gets a lot of exercise. I guess smart phone users just swipe the screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doorsovdoon Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 ah, ok, it's likely the file size then... and my internet, we're in the stone ages where I live when it comes to internet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be a problem my end, who knows, but it's been like this for two or three days now. Just over the past couple of days I have noticed it seems to take forever for pictures to load, I am talking 30-45 seconds for one picture to load. Is this part of the update, or do I need to have a discussion with my internet provider? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xingu Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 I don't think it has to do with the update. The update and server move sped things up for the board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing we’ve noticed over the years is that some things get corrupted outside of our control and it messes everything up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
