I have the same problem here with one of my images. I used K-Meleon when I uploaded it and out of all my images that one just does not show....people can see it but with K-Meleon it shows up as just an icon. It hasn´t done it with any other image. Has Sally and I completely stumped. I suspect it may have something to do with exif files. Even though I save all of them as jpeg´s, this one particular image has an exif tag. I never saved it as such though. Don´t ya love computers...always something going on that has you pulling ya hair out. I am sure some sick tekky invented them as his or her macabre way of teaching us patience and tolerance. :congrats 😎 ;)

Let me get my hand on that sck tekky! LOL I have a little app called Stripfile, and if I run them through that they´re fine, but what a nuisance! I´ll have to play with it some, and see if there is another way around it. Thanks mate.

What I sort of dislike is when I make webcam shots with logitech cam and msn them they mess up, too. Unless doctored. When I get that advanced with photos 1 day maybe direct raw transmission and processing will make it interesting. In fact, who knows, maybe for advanced servers, too. Time will show. ;)

If anyone is interested I did find a way around this by bypassing the exif option in the save preferences, something of a bonus in a bloated software that asks for 20 Euros to open up a number of key ingredients that a first time user might expect as standard. Exif is excess data so that jpeg "owners" can use to share key information... well where I grew up we called it "big brother"... have a read of this cr@p trying to justify it .... http://www.digicamhelp.com/what-is-exif/ If monsters are going to have to exist...
