On Etsy, many of my photos won't load. But they load if I switch to IE. This started yesterday. Why?
I have cleared my cache. The non-loading photos are consistent. Always the same photos won't load. Some others have reported the same issue on Etsy forums, but I don't know if they are using Firefox or not.
All photos load when I use IE.
I am on Firefox 3.6.4

It is possible that you clicked "Block Images" in the right-click context menu while saving an image.
See:
- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
- You can see the permissions for the domain in the current tab in Tools > Page Info > Permissions
- You can see all exceptions in Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions
You can use these steps to check if images are blocked:
- Open the web page that has the images missing in a browser tab.
- Click the website favicon (How do I tell if my connection to a website is secure?) on the left end of the location bar.
- Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
- Go to the Media tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
- Select the first image link and scroll down through 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.
Well, when I first read this, I thought -" I know that's not my problem!" But, I was wrong! This fixed it in a matter of seconds.
I had a "load images" exception. I don't know why, but I changed it to "allow", and immediately had pictures again.
Thank you VERY MUCH for the quick and easy to understand answer.
