Can't view posted pictures

[MichaelK]

I can't view photographs posted by other members. I just see blank spots in the posts where the pictures are supposed to be.

I've gone into the "member CP" and clicked on the "show images" box in the "options" section, but that doesn't do anything.

Can someone please help?

What browser and version # are you using.

Internet Explorer 8 has problems with Forum photos. If you are running that, try upgrading to the latest version.

You might also try a different browser.

The IE8 issue is all I could find on the software website.

I'm using Microsoft Internet Explorer v 6.0.2900.

This is my office computer and I can not upgrade any software myself.

IE6 is pretty old. That is likely the problem.

I don't think there is anything we can do on this end to resolve it for you.

Perhaps your IT department could be convinced to upgrade IE or install a more modern browser.

If not, you may have to forgo the pictures or view the Forum from a home or other computer.

I dunno if I’m too late but…. I’ve got an idea that I use when I’m away from home without my computer… the IT guy from where I retired “fixed” my work and home computers so I could remotely access either from any computer anywhere. It works… I dunno exactly what he did or how he did it but I could always get to my stationary computer at work from home and vice versa. There must be a program out there somewhere that can be bought. I can remotely access my favorites so I can go to the sites I normally go to and I kid you not…. it’s like being on your own computer. The one thing I always forget though… my passwords. I know I shouldn’t do it but…. I tape passwords to the side of my monitor. It’s great being able to use my own computer no matter where I am…. not so great when I can’t log on to this website or when I have to sort through a gazillion e-mails when I get home because I couldn’t remember any passwords.
