'content not viewable in your region'?

[karlcdoe]

Hi site maintainers, in the last couple of weeks or so I have started seeing some background images showing as 'content not viewable in your region' -in the forum titles for example... is this a widespread issue or have I blocked one piece of tracking/spyware crap too many? (not that I have made any active changes to my settings recently)



Cheers
K

Just use the default skin which doesn't use imgur

I use the default skin, @Hurray Banana , and it started happening to me ...

​

... so (as you can see in @karlcdoe 's link, above, and specifically, here) ... I just patched it out myself ... still ... it's happened in the default skin.

I tend to not log on using computer. It redirects to the posts page so you don't see the homepage

Do you think we could have a go at fixing this? It's just a background image that the skin default hosts on imgur, surely (without knowing the BB system) it must be quite easy to fix? Happy to assist if I can be of any help....

If you host it somewhere else, I can provide a very simple css (maybe js) fix ... np ... but ... I suspect wiser minds than mine are already on it. 🙂
