Many Photos, my own and others, can no longer be seen on Flickr. How can I fix this?

When I go to "You" on my Flickr account, most of my photos do not show up. I cannot edit them or add titles because i cannot see them. Only the ones with photos can be brought up. When I open my groups many photos do not show up, only the the photographers user name. When I click on that, it only takes me to his/her photostream but not the photo. This has been going on for at least a couple of weeks. It makes it very difficult for me to administer or run my groups when I cannot see the photos.

See:

It is possible that you clicked "Block Images" in the right click context menu while trying to save an image.

  • A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon (Site Identification icon) on the left side of the location bar.
  • A click on the "More Information" button will open the Security tab of the "Page Info" window (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
  • Open the Media tab of the "Page Info" window.
  • Select the first image and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow key.
  • If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "Block Images from..." then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
  • You can see the permissions for the domain in the current tab in Tools > Page Info > Permissions
  • You can see all image exceptions in Tools > Options > Content: Load Images: Exceptions
