I've just got "Beyond The Sprues" in the top left corner & "... where imagination trumps reality" in the top right corner.

That is now what I'm getting. But now that Jon has explained what he did, I should have thought about it.

I moved the banner off of PB, for obvious reasons, and it now lives in the attachments folder, as stated it shows with default theme,
which means I'll have to tweak the settings for the other themes.

I'll get to it when I can as we've had some family stuff crop up which needs to be addressed before anything else.

Thanks for your patience.

Thanks Jon. hope everything is ok.

OK, this is odd, I checked your profile and you're using the forum default 'Grasslands Curve Variation',
as are the majority of users, and I can see the full banner. Ditto Greg, etc. So why it's not showing
for you is a conundrum.

Do you think it's anything to do with Win10. There's been a number of big updates over the last couple of weeks.  The latest only a couple of days ago

Jon / Robert: I've been running Windows 10 for about 1/2 year now and accepted all the updates.

So far no issues. My browser is Chrome Version 59.0.3071.115 (Official Build) (64-bit).

I am giving up listing them. They all end up on the shelf of procrastination anyways.

Robert and Andonio,
what is the configuration you are using on your browser?, what extensions, pop-up blockers, ad-blockers
etc.
Also go to your profiles and preview the theme 'SMF Default Theme - Curve' and tell me if you see the
banner image.
Profile>Modify Profile>Look and Layout>Current Theme (change)

Carl, could you also list your configuration, please.

Thanks, guys.

I'm having the same problem and have cycled through the themes and made them default (including the pink themes) and I still can't see the banner images. It's not a plugin issue - I switched to Edge (which I've never used to log into this site and has no add-ons) and the images are still missing.

In the HTML code for the "top-section" div (where the header images would be), the racing snail gif is there, but links to the images are missing.

The HTTP link to the logo image in the attachments folder doesn't work for me (top-section >> forumtitle).
The new location of the logo image seems to be off limits for ordinary users.

Try it now folks.
Hosted on SmugMug for the moment, it will eventually be put up in the site root-folder as a permanent solution.

Rearranged things again, now Green on the green theme, Blue on the blue theme.

Something else now Greg, when I opened the forum this morning on my desktop computer, the new GB logo and running title were all screwed up. Just a bunch of white squares.  Then when I tried to sign in it kept saying my verification timed out.  Although when trying to come onto the forum with my cellphone, the GB logo is fine but still getting the message when trying to sign in.

It appears that the odd code adding has gone away, at least for the moment,
I did some pruning of old smiley sets that are unused, and some other general
housekeeping.

If anyone is still having issues, post here or PM me, I'll look into as soon as possible.
Busy at the moment helping my wife get ready to leave in two days to visit
her parents for a month.

Cheers
