Almost all images are broken

Pardon me, but I looked around for an existing topic or notice and didn't see one.

Just in the off chance that I'm the first one to point it out, though, here is the problem. Most images seem to be put in spoiler tags, and the show button doesn't do anything to show them.

I could be wrong, but I often see posts like this:

Here are some screen grabs comparing the two:

SPOILER: Show




I've only been a here a little while, but it's taken me this long to even realize this seems to be a board problem. I thought maybe people were self-hosting files and then deleting them, or that I wasn't waiting long enough for them to load, or that it was some forum in-joke. But now I can't really recall seeing any images at all on this forum, except for avatars.

In fact, even when I first subscribed to the blog's RSS, images rarely worked in the feed, and even on the site. It seems the site struggles with images.

I just hope someone is aware of these issues, sorry if I'm like the 100th person to bring it up.

So images linked from the wiki are at risk? That seems odd, as either old or new servers should provide the images the same, right?

The problem seems to be that I was in a SFW forum style.

No, images linked from the wiki are fine. The migration shouldn't affect any images from either the front page or the wiki.

The SFW forum style turns off all images.
