Can you help find out why the pix embedded using [img] codes are not displaying? They did display right after I loaded (and right after I subseqnetly re-loaded), but evrytime when I check back, there is no pix being displayed.

Why is that? Image size related? What have I done wrong?

Thanks in advance.

I looked at this post:

Perusing the source code for the page, it appears you are referencing at least these two images...

The images are not retrievable all of the time. It appears to be a problem with the image server. (If you click one of the image links above, the image should appear. If it does not, it is a server issue.) I was able to retrieve your images some of the time, but at other times they were not retrievable. Availability is spotty at best.

Here is the address of one of my images. It is always available.

When I enclose it in the image tags...

I get the image.

Thus, your images are problematic at the sever level, not because of the code you entered. (They're nice images, by the way.)

Mickys, thanks for the analysis! You must be one of those IT guru! It is exactly as you describe, there were times I could see the pix and there were times some/all pix were missing. I did suspect it was related to the server... but then again am no IT expect.

Actually I noted that the issue was more frequent in the past than recent, may be they have done something lately which has led to improved stability(?)

I used to store my pix on a car forum and I never had issue when I post pix using [img] code, but I started to have this type of issue with MULTIPLE gun sites where I store firearms related pix... KahrTalk site is already the more stable among the other gun sites I use... so I guess it is not all bad :D

Thanks again!;)
