Left mouse click on "start" lower left screen.  Click on "control panel". Click on "internet options".  Click on top tab "security", set level to medium. Click top tab of "privacy", set to medium.   That should help.  If you are running some other firewall other than Windows, you're on your own.

Adm. is deleting anything larger than 640x480 picels. As it is overloading our site. With so many of us using the site.

Your "show pictures" on Internet Options might be unchecked. Go to "start", then "settings", then "Control Panel", then "Internet Options" then click on "advanced". Scroll down to "show pictures" and make sure it is checked.  :banghead:

Nope, nothing to do with image deletions.   "[dntthnk]"    When large images are moderated, either the entire UBB image code line is deleted or the link URL is left.        

If ya see li'l red X's, that means the code to see the image(s) is there, but either the image is gone or the link is incorrect or your net access is filtering and blocking some or all images (typically this happens on corporate LANS/WANS, etc.), OR your browser's image viewing option has been turned off.

Is your Java script enabled?.... Do you have a pop up blocker set to block them?..... Terry

I have a great idea SHOOT the computer. Then smash it with my tractor bucket.  Leave in field for coyotes
