Here’s a thing. Thomas kindly contacted me the other day to report that when he is using Chrome, he is unable to see the images on the blog, only the placeholder and image title. (See his screenshot below.)
After some investigation, he discovered the problem, and it’s to do with the little padlock you can see to the left of your address bar. That’s at the top of this page where it shows the website address. My blog is housed on a shared server because I can’t afford to pay for one of my own, and this is why you sometimes get a message saying ‘Connection is not secure.’ It is. I mean, the server is very secure, but because it’s shared, browsers automatically put up this message, and in some cases, you might need to change your settings. So, if you see this kind of missing-image thing…
It’s because your browser isn’t set to allow ‘unsafe’ content, i.e., content on a shared server. Click on the padlock, and you should be able to change the setting, and say the site is secure. It’s up to you, but if you don’t see the images properly, that’s what you could do. I hope that makes sense.
Seems a bit odd, when talking about missing images, to add more, but here are a couple of Neil’s from earlier this year. In the absence of any narrative, these are random images to brighten your day. Assuming you can see them.
