Red X appears instead of image? - Comments Page 4

This is so odd. I put some videos (embedded them from the code I got from RayStevens.com and youtube) and they looked fine on my computer until today.

Today all three videos have red "x" instead of video. Only if I check using Firefox, they are okay.

Another computer in this house using I/E same version I have on my computer, they show up fine.

Am I going crazy? I tried to follow every step you described in this article, and still no joy. I don't know what changed since yesterday when they were fine, and today when they are x.

Well, I have a computer, a laptop, that doesn't have view, tools or menu bar; the red "X" still appears. I am the sender. What should I do?

What to do with the red X in EUDORA 7 ??

This Red X thing has been going on for so long I had just about given up ever being able to see pics that people send me but, being stubborn, I decided to try again....But sadly, have tried most of these possible solutions to no avail. I don't use Outlook - never have - so I don't know if using Bobs's link to solve it within Outlook would be a good thing or a bad thing, since it's specific to Outlook, so I haven't tried it. Should I???? Also, there is no option in my antivirus (Norton) to uncheck the "disable web bugs" so I couldn't try this solution either. My IE security is already set too low (they keep warning me every time I leave AOL for a web site (AOL, by default, uses IE) so I did not reset this to the "default" setting as this would increase the security and cause some of my web sites to block me.
Anyone have any other ideas? Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

I had the dreaded red X on my website and opened a Help ticket - the response I received from the web tech is this:

It looks like your file is not in the correct format. It is a .jpg which is good, but it was probably saved in Photoshop or whichever graphic program it was created in with a CYMK color palette as opposed to RGB. Internet Explorer is not able to handle image files that use the CYMK color coding so you need to make sure to always save your images as RGB. Try saving your image as RGB and reimporting it. I think you will be pleased with the results.

Hope this helps! I sure wouldn't have thought of this.

Something in gmail?

This problem is still a nightmard for thousands. When Outlook.com got foisted on the Hotmail.com users, the community went wild and still is. Do a search on the Microsoft Community about pictures failing to show in Outlook.com-even with "active view" turned on. There's numerous requests for help, but no solution to this has still been forthcoming. It appears that Internet Explorer 9 and up, don't play well with Outlook.com. Sometimes I use Chrome to send an email where I copy and pasted the picture in and my recipients do see it. However, when you get a cute, funny cartoon email you'd like to pass on as new, rather than forward, forward, forward, you can't copy and paste like you could with Hotmail. So, most people now just do the Forward and delete the other recipients to keep spammers from harvesting emails. The bottom lin though is this, despite the pages and pages on the forum seeking help for this issue, there is still no answer. You either get a red"X" or a blue "circle". Guess that's the way it's going to be.
