Firefox won't display pictures on forum?

MICRider · 05-17-2015, 11:05 PM

I did a quick search and didn't find anything on this. I used to use Chrome all the time but have recently switched to the upgraded Firefox. It seems to work well for the most part, but I have noticed on these forums that pics don't display in Firefox, I just get the pic name and filesize... But, if I switch back to Chrome I can see them just fine.

Is anyone else having this issue, or is there just a setting in Firefox that I have to tweak to get the pictures to show up? No big deal switching back to Chrome to see them, just wondering if I'm missing something?

I still use IE as a browser on this forum, because it has never failed me. I have little experience with Firefox.

I am guessing FireFox has a setting along the lines of 'automatically download linked pictures' or something along those lines.

I think I figured it out, it's either my pop up blocker in Firefox or my login... It often times doesn't log me in if I don't have "remember me" checked. I made sure to have remember me checked and disabled my pop up blocker and now it's working. I thought it might have been forum related, but it appears to be totally caused by Firefox itself. That'll teach me for jumping back and forth with my browsers
