I haven't had issues viewing embedded/linked photos until the recent update. Now, I can't view photos in posts. Does anyone know a work around?
Can you give an example or two?

I've been running into this issue as well. Seems to be something related to Cox for me.

Here is one of the threads I'm having issues with.

Looks like it only affect images linked as attachments. External photos appear to work fine.

And I can see this one so it looks like it may be the attached ones that line up at the bottom that I'm having issues with. http://eccie.net/showthread.php?t=1299841

Also forgot to mention the following,

I tried 3 browsers on one PC, 2 browsers on a 2nd machine, and on my iPad/iPhone over wifi, and none of them would display images attached to posts.

I connected using a PC that is not using Cox as an ISP and it worked. When I left home and tested from iPhone again, I could see the pics, but once I refreshed back at home, they did not show up.

So to me it appears to be something with displaying attached (not linked) photos over Cox. If an image is linked via an external URL (imagecoast, BP, etc) it shows up fine. I appear to be able to view showcase photos fine as well.
There may be something to the ISP suggestion as it doesn't look like there's any problem with your account. Adonis, are you able to log in using a different internet provider?

The thing about using internet service provided by a hotel is some of them will filter out adult content.

For the record, I have no issues viewing the pictures and I am using a laptop running Windows 7 Pro hooked up to Time-Warner.

Sounds like you guys are having ISP related problems.

Most ISP's DNS servers will block some pictures hosts.

Change your DNS Servers to google and openDNS (for this one I would recommending signging up and removing the filters they put up which may block porn sites and redirect url typos, but it's fast).

Google DNS: 8.8.8.8
Google DNS: 8.8.4.4
OpenDNS: 208.67.222.222
OpenDNS: 208.67.220.220




The best way to do this is change the DNS on your home router so that it covers your wifi devices.

There are so many different routers, devices, and operating systems that I'm not going to bother posting on how to do this (google is your friend:
Code:
How do I change the DNS on <windows7/8/8.1 Ipad/Iphone/Android Linksys/cisco/netgear/belkin router>
should do the trick .)

If you want it machine specific then do it on the machine you're using. You can also do it on your device by setting it up in the wifi connections.


If you need help, feel free to pm me.

Major wireless provider's Android 4.4 (kitkat) doesn't load a few pics from a KC Coed thread "Fun & UN photoshppped".
Specifically posts 59, 60, 80 & 81 where just the "attached image" bracket is presented.
Can see those fine on a different tablet and on a desktop
I have same problem....since update not seeing pics that are attached.
