I've noticed over the past week that the 'Image Digest' section of the
newsgroups may not be showing the latest images(?)  The most recent example I
see there is...

Preview of image 'structure synth.jpg'
by Norbert Kern on 11 May 2016 13:25:01
in 'Re: "Metal Monster" WIP'

(I'm running Windows XP, with the latest version of Firefox.)

For example, I've uploaded several images since that date (as responses to the
"just dawdling" news thread), but they haven't shown up there, like they used
to.

Is is just me?

No. I see the same. (Win7, FF 40.0.2)

Same is true for Google Chrome and MS IE.
Imho the problem exists since 12 days.

Here, using win7 and latest Firefox, the attached images previews are 
not shown straight away but as a link.

I'll take a look at this as soon as I get a chance (might be a few
days). Thanks for the report.

The same thing on my end, too.

I have Win 7 and Chrome, and it seems to be working fine for me - although I do
recall having a lot of the images in the actual threads appear not as previews,
but links.   This, for whatever reason, no longer appears to be the case.

Opera correctly shows previews for me as well.

It's not the browser nor the operating system; it's the date.  Previews 
show from May 11 and earlier, but not since the 12th.

FWIW, the attachments are fine in Thunderbird, so it appears to be a 
problem with the Web interface.

Just an FYI - it's still attaching images as links instead of previews.   Seems
to be sporadic in terms of whether it does that or not though.

Just thought I'd post some updated feedback.
