Magicseaweed is a surf website with a large number of photos and icons - for sometime I have been unable tos ee any photos or icons and parts of the page move out of their format. I have the same experience with Internet Explorer. With the help of the magicseaweed people it would appear that there is an issue with reading their bank of photos 'cdnimages'. There are smaller occurences of this elsewhere when I looking at web pages but this is the worst. I have tried changing 'exceptions' in the tools/options/content menu but to no effect - the magicseaweed people have also provided me with the specific web address to their cdn images but this will not provide photos either

As it is happening with IE and Firefox, you should check any internet security software that you have to see if they have the capability to block images. It may be some form of ad-blocking software that is blocking the images.

To ensure that Firefox is not blocking them try the following (as IE is also not showing images, this should not be the case but it is worth checking). With the site on display, click on the site identity button and then on More Information. This will open up the page info dialog.

First select the Permissions panel, make sure that "Load Images" is set to allow (selecting Use Default should also work)

Next select the Media panel, then click on the first item in the list. Use the down arrow key to scroll through the list. If any item has the option "Block images from (domain name)" selected, de-select the option.

The Fix problems that cause images to not show article will have further information.

Do you see the images if you copy the URL in the location bar?
