Can you see some of them?

Some photos are posted as attachments and might require a certain amount of time or activity before the forum lets you see them (for privacy and possibly to save bandwidth)

Others are posted on image-hosting sites that might not be accessible to every country. This happens from time to time

Photobucket used to be a popular hosting service around here, and all those went kerfloop. So especially at the beginning of older threads, you probably won't see much. Try newer posts (the last pages in a thread).

In addition to problems of certain photo hosting sites, all old photos that were served from http:// links are broken. This is because modern browsers will not load non-secure images from secure https:// pages.

The way around that is to press 'reply with quote' which will show you the image URL; you can then copy and paste that into your browser

this also works for some older Photobucket pics (but not all).
