Forgive me mods if I am posting this in the wrong place but it is affecting the FPSC sections more than others.

Someone is useing imageflock for avatar hosting and it is preventing some of us from even seeing some of the greatest post on the forums. Google blocks the post because of imageflock's involvement with malware. A good example is Spyra wich I consider a must see for FPSC users.
So whoever is using imageflock please will you kindly choose another imagehost. This is on more than one post.

First I have heard of this...

Perhaps try another browser?

Usually ut is a stupidly hosted image that caused issues here last year, one which demanded login to access an image... Another time it was a very dodgy host for images...

Regardless, if you need an image host, just upload the image to a post here and link to that, it should work fine...

If I'm not mistaken I think TGC already offers to host your avatar in your profile.

Actually I was wrong about the hosting so mrValentine's suggestion is best.

Yeah, I can't view Spyra because of this, which is a real shame.

If something compiles on the first try. Something is terribly wrong.

I am staying out of it. Done my bit previously.

I have brought this to attention some time ago where appropriate.

No one of any kind seemed to have the slightest interest in the issue until now.

I have simply refused to view any threads or posts where such issue occur anywhere at the boards and thats quite a few threads or posts.

I may decide to change my own approach to that at any time at my discretion

Exactly who it is, it's in his signature, the image he is using simply doesn't display for me but when I try clicking on it as link in html source it blocks me right off with a warning of attack site.

Quote: "<div class="signature"><a target="_blank" href="http://wraycist.tumblr.com/"><img src="http://imageflock.com/img/1352257476.gif" border="0" /></a><br />
Hire Me! I model, animate, cook, clean, and texture!</div> </div>
"


I doubt it would help (except for future posts) if he were to remove it as its in the sig, concerning posts already made it might require a mod to clean every thread he's been in. Slim chance it might work if he deletes it from the imageflock site altogether though I doubt that too as the link itself will remain.

I don't trip over...I do random gravity checks.

Im getting problems in that spyra thread as well, wolfs pictures dont always show, and I have to wait ages for them, thats if they show, I tried different browser and chrome will not allow that page at all because of malware alert on some site. I think imageflock, so OP is correct.

Right about imageflock but its not the avatar, its in the signature which cant be changed for old posts...unless the mods have a way to nuke it.

I asked Bugsy to edit his post in hope this might change the signature. Is the problem solved at least for that thread?

Thanks for trying @TOMAHAWK

Presenting a project is way more fun if the whole community can actually look at it
