It seems IE doesn't play well with imageshack - without a image .ext attached to them.
For your Avatar, use :

Thank you, Mayhem! I admit I'm a chrome girl, myself, but IE is needed for BING rewards and I saw the pics weren't appearing. I didn't realize the .ext was missing. Thanks again! xox
Aren't we losing IE?
I read the article that said Microsoft was ditching IE for Spartan

Isn't Spartan a condom? Does this mean IE's replacement will be less likely to spread virii?
All they are doing is ditching the name. Same crappy product, new look.
Maybe I haven't been paying attention but I haven't had much of an issue with IE. I know IE6 was a fiasco for Microsoft but all the versions since weren't enough to make repairs with the reputation? What's wrong with IE?
Generally it comes down to personal preference.
IE has gotten much better than it used to be...but it's still such a large market share that it's still the main target for malware/viruses. And since it's not open source, the only people that can look for bugs to fix them are Microsoft people...others look for bugs to exploit them, not make the product better. It's much easier to control security with something like Firefox and it's variants (and even Chrome somewhat..if you trust Google as a whole. I don't, so won't use it).
The best step Microsoft made was allowing "add-ons" like Firefox and Chrome do. There is (and always will be) a stigma with the name though...so that's why they are calling the new product "Spartan".
I haven't heard of IE changing there name as of yet, but for me I only use IE & not any other browser. I don't understand what the others are asking when I try ot change browers, so I have stayed with IE for 15 yrs now. So I really don't no much about the others except what other people have told me about them. I quess itsup to a person who likes which ever they feel is better for them. coffee.gif
