The extension for that picture was a .eps, thought by UBB to be a non-pic format. If you click on that link, it would come up as a picture.

OK, I'll try to explain, even if you don't want to know why... [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinser2.gif[/img]

Pictures are defined to the UBB software (which CPF is running) as .gif (GIF's), .jpg (JPEG's), and maybe .png (PNG's). When the UBB software sees in between the image tags that there is a dot (.) it checks the extension (the stuff after the dot, like gif, jpg, or png) for supported image formats. If it is not one of those, it does not display, seeing as it doesn't know how. Why can you see it? The browser (like IE or Netspace, or whatever you're using) interprets that .eps as code to locate the picture on the Hammacher server. (I'm assuming that last sentence, it could be code, it might not be) That's why you see it, and the UBB software has no idea... [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
