How come I can't open thumbnails?

[Elkhound Odin]

Whenever some posts a thumbnail and I click to enlarge, all I get is a blank space where the picture should be. I don't have this problem when opening thumbnails in the TGR community photo section. I only have this problem with thumbnails in forum posts. I don't have any popup blockers running. What gives???

Been having that problem for almost a year - only on this site.

Me too. Sucks for checking out the padded room and gear swap.

Complaining about something not working without stating your OS and what browser you are using isn't helping your case.

I'm using Windows XP and IE 8. Any suggestions?

This seems to be an Internet Explorer issue that I can't figure out. My home computer has both Google Chrome and IE8. Thumbnails work fine with Chrome, but not with IE8. I have all the popup blockers turned off, it doesn't make a difference.

Is there some other setting I need to check? I can't load Chrome (or any other browser, on my work PC)

Nevermind, I think I figure out how to open these.

Instead of a simple click on the thumbnail, right click and select "open link". Now the pictures open to full size.

hey, why couldn't you computer geeks tell me this? You guys are almost useless.
