I don't see any of the pictures in the forum, but if I copy and paste the link into my browser they come up.

I suggest you add a URL link to the image below each, as well as and IMG tag. Then if we don't see it, buy clicking on the link it may show in a new browser window.

Mine come up as small blue squares with a question mark in the square. I right click and choose 'Open Image in New Window'. I'm on a mac, so may be different on pc ... not sure.

With Windows, it shows a box with a red x in the middle.  If you right click the pic and then choose 'show picture' it usually  works,  but with this thread I can't seem to view any of them.   :(
