For some reason I can't see any of the images while browsing TGC. Heres an image of what I mean :

The red is the name of the entity i clicked on.
The blue is the "picture"

NOTE: This happens to all of the entities I click on.

You need to go to the manufacturer's website for the graphics card you own. If you have an nVidia card, then you must go to http://www.nvidia.com, if you have an ATI, go to http://www.amd.com, etc.

Each have their own 'Download Drivers' section, so just follow the prompts to select your graphics card, operating system, etc. and you'll be able to download an updated driver.

If you're not sure what graphics card you have, go to the Settings panel of your Display Properties (Right Click desktop and choose 'Properties'). The panel will tell you what display you're running in the format: "Monitor Name on Graphics Card Name".

Maybe it's that windows theme you're using, perhaps switch back to a default theme and try again?

Ok, I changed it from my Alien-ware theme to regular XP. I'm going to upgrade internet 7 to 8. I'm going to edit this post when its installed if theres a change.

EDIT: Nope, still blackened.

But most browser-included applications such as The Game Creators Store use Internet Explorer framework. Opera is good indeed, I myself use it, but installing Internet Explorer 8 wouldn't really help as it's framework is still the same as 7.

I Agree 100%. Opera is awesome.

Yeah, I figured that out this morning .

Ok, so is there any way for me to fix it? I did the following:
1. Updated my Graphics Card
2. Updated and Installed IE 7/8.
3. Changed my windows theme from Alienware to XP

Do you have color depth set to 16bit on your computer? I did and it made them black until I changed it to 32 bit.

If you get mad and want to type something nasty about another person do this-Type what you want to say in the box then press ctrl-a and hit delete then type what you should say.

I'm at a loss. There are two ways to access the store. One is from FPSC map editor and the other is from an exe stand-alone app. Out of curiosity which one of these ways are you accessing the store?

I wonder where the program connects to, because it's simply a web page online, I think I'm going to do a simple traceroot to see where it goes to.

No offence, but why would anyone use 16Bit in the first place?
