  • Cant see pictures on BF.com

    Does anyone else have issues viewing pictures embeded in posts? When I'm at work, I can see avatar pics but nothing for images within posts. I'm guessing my IT group blocks the images all together, because they don't even show up as a busted link or busted icon. Anyone know a way around it?

    I can see them fine. It is possible you have your Control Panel set to block images in posts. Avatars are not considered the same as images in the posts.

    To check-
    Click on the UserCP (User Control Panel) link on the black banner across the top of every page.
    Then click the Edit Options selection in the left column.
    Then scroll down to the 3rd category titled Thread Display Options.
    Then make sure you click the boxes to show Signatures, Avatars, and Images.

    There are a lot of other viewing options available there. Check them out.

    If that doesn't solve your problem, PM me.

      By the way...if the above doesn't work (and I just checked BUBalum05's profile, and he does have all the settings correct) then the problem is likely due to a web-blocking software that is embedded on the computers at your place of work. I have seen a number of employers that block images and other types of links to conserve their computer memory and protect against viruses.

      The images that you see in posts here are not actually hosted on our site. They consist of a link that automatically seeks out, and posts the image into the posts. Those "links" that connect to 3rd party sites are what some computers are programmed to block.

          Agreed about objectionable stuff. But I don't know how any employer can agree that Bradley basketball pictures are objectionable.
