Default Can't see a lot of pictures

Sorry if this has been dealt with elsewhere but I don't quite know how to ask the question to use the search function.

Just noticed tonight after I cleared Cache etc. When I logged back into this site most of the pictures are coming up as a black box with a white cross on them.
Is this a problem from the site or is it something that I need to do from my computer??

Thanks a lot.

Running ccleaner is always a good place to start with pic/cache issues.

I'm getting it too, don't think it's cache issue.

Yeah I just updated to the Professional version, but now that nstg8a is having the same problem I'm still not convinced it's cache related. (But I cleared it all just to be sure before I posted my original message)

I just viewed the last five pages of that thread and everything seems ok.
ccleaner gave me 7 gig back. I must not have run it for a while!

Possibly a photo bucket issue or older pics. I'm sure Russ will check it out.

I would say it is the site hosting the pics that is down, as images are not stored on the forum server..... Well I don't think they would be.

Actually, I was just thinking along those lines - might give it some time and try again.

Yeah could well be a photobucket issue, seems the same on a couple of other forums I frequent.

What you can try is pressing Ctrl+F5 to force a cache dump and retrieve the page as fresh.

Thanks buddy (plus all the others for their replies) All seems to be back to normal now so I guess it must have been photobucket or similar sites being un-available. Cheers all.
