The bug seems to be on CD's end. To the naysayers saying slashdot is fine and blah blah blah...

Technically.. every site is broken, and every site is working.

For those of you not seeing any problems on CD, every site is working.
For those of you that are seeing problems on CD, you are also seeing at every other site which uses PHP to dynamically create pages.

The problem seems to be some kind of missing fragment of CD's script that isn't allowing the pictures to appear. It seems every image not in /forums/images/___.ext will not appear. (For example: /forums/images/smilies/mad.gif does not appear, but /forums/images/posticonnew.gif does [next to spotlights]) When Properties of an unviewable image is displayed, the correct URL is shown, but the filesize is labeled as -1 bytes.

When you go to any other site after ChiefDelphi that uses PHP, this same problem shows up... to you. Which is why when you, say, go to Google, it's fine. Because Google doesn't use PHP. But SlashDot does.

The only way I see around this, until CD fixes whatever the cause of this is to close all IE windows, clear your Temporary Internet Files, and load back up to other sites, and save CD for the end of the trail.
