Images not displaying on my website

If you cut and paste http://www.northlondoninterfaith.org.uk/img/interfaith_hands3.jpg into the URL address on your browser, the picture is displayed correctly so it must be on the server and displayable.

You haven't got any hotlink protection enabled by any chance that doesn't allow access from your own URL ? Just a wild guess ....

Not that I'm aware of, but I'll check.

Flexible Friend, you are a genius! Somehow hotlink protection was enabled (didn't even know how to do that) and the list of sites allowing direct linking only included one of my sites. For now I've left it enabled but added the other sites to the list. So now everything is working.

Thanks everyone for helping me through this.

Does it make sense to enable hotlink protection?

It was a stab in the dark but I use hotlink protection on my website and have seen what happens if you don't set it up correctly. :T

Enable hotlink protection if you want to stop people stealing your pictures... OK you can't stop then from right clicking etc.,. but it stops them linking to your pictures from their site and using your bandwidth.

Please note, for your website you will need to list it with and without the 'www' e.g.

http://www.mywebsite.co.uk
http://mywebsite.co.uk

Also, include these URLs to allow search engines to index your pictures.

http://images.google.co.uk
http://images.google.com
http://uk.images.search.yahoo.com
http://uk.yahoo.com

Good luck with your website. Glad to be of assistance. :beer:
