For the techies - viewing images embedded in posts

[robe0455 Junior Member Find all posts View Profile Close robe0455]

I'd appreciate anyones help on this.

It had been a while since I visited this site and I saw that links had to be opened to view images, instead of them simply being embedded in posts. I am now thinking that this coincided with my purchase of a new Macbook Pro and there is some issue that is prevented me from viewing the images, rather only the hyperlink.

Not sure if anyone else has experienced this but thought I can't be the only Mac user!

Cheers

Which particular thread are you referring to?

[robe0455 Junior Member Find all posts View Profile Close robe0455]

All of the threads actually. There is not one thread in which I can see a real image, only hyperlinks that I can click on to go to the image wherever it may be (photo bucket for example).

I just tried Firefox and that is fine, so its an issue with Safari...

Check your Safari settings. You may have selected not to load images. Reset the settings and clear the cache.

Howdy,

You could check that the 'show images' box is ticked in your profile.

Click settings (top right). Then general settings (from the menu on the left) and scroll down until you see the box that says show images under Thread display options

Worth a shot!

And the winner is.... Didn't even think to look there. As the images worked in Firefox I just figured it was a settings issue with Safari.

Many thanks!

I figured if it was a default setting there must be many people who don't know about this!

Hahaha no worries guys, I only know as I was in there the other day fixing up the 'threads to display' setting!
I was thinking PP didn't allow them to be imbedded for page loading reasons or something, saw that box and had a big ahhhh moment.

Makes the Bullbar picture thread much more enjoyable!


Cheers,
