This happens all the time, finally wanted to post about it. Seems like the site's images only "work" at best 50% of the time. Usually it's a nice big X where an image should be. Usually just in the main site and news areas? Dont have the problem with other sites. Anyone else have this happen while visiting VBGamer?

Not for me. The images always come up. I guess we should start posting Browser/OS, so Eric can sort this out.


Windows XP Pro SP1
Firefox 1.0.3

Weird, that the problem only shows up on this site. I agree though, my isp's fault. Sorry for the bother, feel free to delete this topic. :)

If images don't work at all, then your HTTP requests are getting screwed up. Your ISP could be using some sort of cache or perhaps you're using a program on your PC that's messing up your HTTP requests. Norton Internet Security is one such program that does this. You can configure it to not delete http referer information, but don't ask me how because I don't know. I do have a leech filter on this website that checks to make sure that people that are downloading images and files are actually visiting this website. Since anyone can upload stuff I don't want people to use this server as their own personal storage facility by hotlinking to files here.
