I am not seeing folder icons in the forum lobby. The only one that displays is the old Day of Terror folder. This has been going on for a few days. I have tried all my browsers, including the exalted IE. Same thing....

Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.

Why not question something for a change?

Try clearing your browser cache. I don't know much about Macs; it's possible all browsers use a shared cache.

I'm stumped. The only places those pictures are stored is in cache folders. Do you have a folder called "Temporary Internet Files"?

Did a security setting chage kil? Those folders are chosen as a new topic icon, a "read" forum icon, a flaming icon etc. This is done by checking your cookie for the time and day you last visited to select the correct icon. Could you have altered a cookie or computer security setting? These new operating systems have a lot of new security tools you might want to check out.

Wait, now you get no icons on any website or just SFN? Can you look in your cache to see if the main forum pages images are in there?

Just SFN. I emptied my IE cache.... Maybe I need to reload IE? I dunno. Mozzila is acting the same way, only its only the lobby folders that don't show. Same with AOLs browser, a version of IE...

Try swearing loudly and/or striking something near the computer (or the computer itself) with your fist or another object. Next, prop your Mac next to the door or put it on a stack of papers so it can properly do the job it was designed to do.

So the rest of the icons are fine? Only the folders don't show? Like I said, these folders are displayed depending on when your cookie says you last visited. Try deleting your SFN cookies(there may be 2) first.

Ok, I got one for you. I removed the cookies and before I signed in I saw the folders. The moment I signed in they were gone.....

Are you sure they are gone? Do this, log out, delete the cookies, get up and spin around 3 times, go back in and make sure you log in "inside" the forum. Try deleting the cookie for another site you visit. I am curious as to whether that will work fine. But at least we know you can log in so it did make a cookie. There appears to be something up with the time it records.
