I don't know about anybody else but I can't see thumbnails when I use firefox.It has been like this for a few months now and I always hoped it would get fixed but it hasn't.Is this a known problem with a fix?

Thanks

Tried clearing your cache? updating to the latest version of firefox? getting new internetz?

If it's not that, I can't help you.

Actually it is helpful.  There was a commonality between he and I - Firefox.  Because I spoke up and reported that thumbnails were displaying for me, we all have now established that Firefox is NOT
necessarily the culprit, or I would have had problems too.  The problem therefore must lie either elsewhere within his computer, or perhaps it is his specific, personal settings that are causing his problem.  So neener neener.  I'm doped up on painkillers and I can still blast your snotty remark out of the water. :P

>>1 Check Firefox version (Help>About) - Latest is 2.0.0.4
Any plugins installed?
Are you connecting through a proxy server?
What operating system? (Linux? Mac? Windows?) Version if possible (IE. Windows XP? OSX 10.4?)
Define can't see thumbnails -> Are they coming up with an icon, or simply never loading?

We'd need more details to try and help with problem.

>>5 Simply stating "works for me in firefox" would have been helpful.  However, going on about how you're hopped up on drugs (legitimate or not) and being rude is probably not helpful.

Wait, nvm, you're not that guy >.<

Well, HE was rude first.  I reserve the right to call him out on his snide remark.

It's a bug in FF.

Download the latest FF, it fixes it.  I encountered it plenty myself, annoyed the fuck out of me.
It's a bug that only affects auro-resizing.  IE, if the image is actually fully downloaded, but cropped or squished to fit the constaints, like FrontPage's 'auto-thumbnail' option, or most WYSIWYG editors'.

There's a fix for it too, I just can't remember how it works.  Just download the latest version, is my advice.
(Be sure to do a full uninstall before reinstalling)

Interesting, I have the full version and it was none of these problems. I decided to go through and check some settings since I just assumed it was a bug all along and I ran across "Load images automatically" under tools - options. Beside it is exceptions and fchan was the only site in there that was blocked for some reason. All fixed now!

Thanks for the replies guys!
