problems with "site images"

anyone else having problem with images belonging to the site? i.e. banner at top of page, rep squares, avatars and stuff like that. pretty much every image supplied by the site is gone for me.....might be my employer...just checking. same with FF and IE

 

I don't see images from some people's posts, such as from flickr or photobucket, but that's because my work connection blocks it. I do see all of the avatars, banners, etc. on the site though.

 

yeah, that is what i am suspecting is going on.....i do get the occasional images/gifs that will not load because they are blocked. prob same thing with the sites image storage location.....my employers security protocols just does not like it.

 

I've got the same problem, it was working fine last week, tried it this morning and none of the pictures load and the site is super slow.

 

it's been hit or miss for me on safari. pretty much always on the dod computers.

 

One reason I don't even bother with forums at work.

While IT doesn't pull audits on usage from the traffic management network, we're behind 3 layers of firewalls, and have to manually log in every time we open a browser window, plus every hour or so if we keep the window open.
Any of our software that needs access to the outside world has it's own dedicated path through security.

Goes both ways... IT doesn't want someone hacking the traffic network and getting into the City servers, and we don't want anyone coming in from "the wild" or from the IT department and jacking our traffic management network.
I can get in from home using an RSA token and remote desktop... that's the only way in

 

bummer. This pretty much kills TW for me while at work.Time to find something else to do now TW was one of the only forums that would actualy let me log in on at work. I can still log in but everything is red "X"d

 

Mine was back working today

 

Same problem here....this just started this week. Seems strange that many of us are having this issue all of a sudden. I suspect something changed with TW.

 

Mine is off and on at work (this might be pointless if images don't work for anyone else on this thread) but the page looks like this a lot of the time where the banner should be:



And here's what posts look like:



None of the buttons (quote, multi-quote, pm, rep) work, but signatures and most pics show up for me. It's off and on whether or not everything works as it should, and it just started this week as well. It used to run perfectly here.

 

yeah, that is exactly what i see

 

Gotcha. Weird, that just started. I guess they must've added it to stuff they block recently. Why does it randomly work then?

 

their baaaaaaack!

i guess the hosting site went through the security gauntlet and came out unscathed.

and they all rejoiced....well, at least me

 

I just went to the twstatic.net site mentioned above and Tacomaworld loaded with all of the pictures now showing. Strange. If you're still having problems you may want to try this.....

 

Working good so far today, the bob has worked his magic haha

 

All clear here now as well
