I'm not seeing the pictures ???
When I go to a thread, for some reason most of the pictures won't show up.
Instead of the pictures, its a blue box with a question mark ? It seems to happen to almost all the threads I try to view, even my own, whats going on with that ?? |

Assuming you're not at work where some of the photo-sharing sites may be blocked, there's a Profile option in your control panel to not show images. Is that maybe set?

I checked a bunch of threads and on some I see the pics and others I don't.
On my own threads that I used to see the pics, now they are blue box with ? Mark. Could photobucket blocked or down ? |

Looks like the option I was talking about just changes the image to a link (no blue question mark). Might be a setting in your Droid's browser (do you use Chrome)?

This is happening only when viewing from my Droid x .I can see them from any other device.
Two of my friends have the same phone and same thing,they cant see the pics either. I cant see photobucket pictures but can see some from other places. |

Might be something with browser on your phone (if you're not using Tapatalk). I would try downloading chrome from the app store and see if you see the same problem.

No, I think it's something with the browser on the Droid. Tapatalk is nice, but shouldn't be neccessary. I'm assuming it used to work at some point? Did your phone recieve an update recently? You say some threads show pics, but others don't? Examples would help...

Seems like not viewing photobucket for sure.Im not sure what else,some pics I can see. Its weird too,cause i can use the phone to take a picture,send it to photobucket,go to photobucket and copy the pic,then go to advrider and add it to the thread and everybody else can see it but all I see is a blue box with a question mark on it.Same with my 2 buddys with droids like mine,they cant see the pics either,I just verified it today.But if I go on a desktop computer or wifes Iphone 4s I can see the pics. Its just something with these Verizon droidx phones and some pics all of the sudden. |

To me, it sounds like something on the phone is blocking Photobucket. There may be a browser setting to disable pics, but all pics would then be turned off, not just Photobucket. The pics you see are probably hosted on another site (i.e., Smugmug, etc...). Besides any updates that your carrier may have pushed, did you install any type of anti-virus, firewall, web-filter, or any other security app on your phone recently? (Probably a stretch, since you said other people w/ the same phone are seeing the problem.) Did you try a Droid forum (AndroidCentral.com might be a good place to start)? It could also be that Photobucket changed something on thier site that is preventing pics from showing on certain devices. Sawa this with some quick Google'ing:

Ok, now everything is working a normal.
It must have been photobucket temporary issues. |
