You have to be more specific. Some sites block direct linking so that we don't leech their bandwidth. It works in a new browser as it is set that way so they can score hits through search engines. The image is then cached and will show up here only to disappear later on. My links never fail as I use a host that doesn't prohibit direct linking. Is this what you were referring to?

I can't find the thread we had trouble with but basically this is what happens...

copy address from website with pic

post in 2wc with IMG tags wrapped around it

original poster can see the pic but most others cannot

if someone who can't see the pic copy's and pastes the img location from 2wc to the their browsers address bar and then returns to the thread on 2wc they can see the pic.

because he's the monkey who complained in the first place and screams that you errr i mean admao sucks and that this site sucks.

Here's the easy, hotlink image to CLSB, Acurazine, CR or any other forum and everyone can see the image. 2WC? nope, just our version of a red X

Yes. I am about as qualified as Paiky is to give a speech at a formal dinner when it comes to this stuff.

But, I agree with phallus that the pics don't appear, you gotta clear your cache or some retarded ass Bill Gates fucking bullshit goddamn mutherfucker.
