Is something wrong with the pictures on this website?...

...or is something wrong on my end? I haven't seen any discussion about this anywhere so I'm beginning to wonder. For the last couple of days, none of the pictures on this particular website are loading on my computer. Is it just a temporary problem?

They all load fine on mine.

Well this is definitely odd. Any ideas how to fix this? All other websites are fine on this computer. Luke?

Yesteerday, I put an end to remote-image hosting so that sites stealing bandwidth from UD can no longer do so. It made a significant difference in the numbers and so for the foreseeable future, it's going to be like that. What address are you visiting UD from? If it's ultimatedisney.com...or even if it's the IP address....it should be working fine. Is there something that's between you and the site? I can't think of what, a proxy perhaps, that's causing them not to load?

I guess I'm viewing the site from ultimatedisney.com.
Hmm. Maybe I'll try deleting my internet history folders and try again or something, see if that'll work. I'll play around with it until I fix it.

What browser are you using too? Any toolbars? I'm trying to think of what might be causing the problems, but I can't think of much.[/list]

No luck. This is so incredibly weird and frustrating! I can't figure it out.

(I can't even see the face I just made)

I'm using Internet Explorer, no special toolbars.

Can you get me a URL of any of the pictures you're not seeing by right-clicking and looking at Properties?

Here's a URL for the main forum logo at the top left corner-
http://www.ultimatedisney.com/forum/mar05forumlogo.jpg
The only pictures that do load are links to Amazon, qksrv.net, click.linksynergy.com, etc.

I don't know if it would make a difference, but have you tried clearing your internet cache? The other day threads I started wouldn't un-orange after I read them for some reason, but doing that fixed it.

I tried clearing out the internet cache. Didn't do any good.

Do you have another browser on your computer? You can try it and it works fine on the other browser, then you can conclude that the problem exists somewhere in Internet Explorer (which would surprise no one). Of course if it still doesn't work on another browser that won't indicate much of anything.

And when you right-click somewhere on the page and click Properties, you get an address that also has
http://www.ultimatedisney.com/.... something or other?

Well, I don't have another browser, but I do have Kazaa Lite that I could surf the net with, so I tried that. Still, same problem with the pictures. They don't load.

Right. Everything always starts with
http://www.ultimatedisney.com... when I check the properties.

I opened up Explorer and looked around possible preferences that could get in the way, and nothing jumped out at me. Have you tried restarting your computer? If there's any sort of phantom program running or something like that, it would get cleared out.
