There seems to be some trouble with the images you're uploading. Can you go back and view some of the ones you've just uploaded; neither I no Guppymomma can see them.--Fiddler 11:57, 19 January 2006 (PST)
- Serious problem with these images - they're not images. I don't know what's going wrong, but rename them to *.HTML and load them in your browser. Almost suggested vandal/hack attempt until I remembered that Clio is an OM account. --AtteSmythe 12:17, 19 January 2006 (PST)
- Retracted previous and above. Mediawiki apparently serves up a web page without redirect if the image cannot be found. I'm confused as to why Fiddler's uploads worked, but Clio's didn't. I suspect that something is wrong with the originals being uploaded, though they're all different formats. Rather stumped. --AtteSmythe 12:25, 19 January 2006 (PST)
- Could either be a source file issue or just something odd with Clio's computer setup. --Guppymomma 12:27, 19 January 2006 (PST)
- A test reupload of worked fine for me. Image was retreived from http://www.puzzlepirates.com/docs/shots/mucky_cannon.gif. --Guppymomma 12:31, 19 January 2006 (PST)
- As a complete aside, other Official: namespace images are linked directly to the puzzlepirates.com webserver's image directory. I thought that was a good idea because it doesn't allow a vandal to swap out images on a protected document. These new files should probably be protected, if that wasn't already the plan. --AtteSmythe 12:32, 19 January 2006 (PST)
- It's the plan, I notified the other admins of this the other day when some official images were first uploaded. --Guppymomma 12:34, 19 January 2006 (PST)

- Looks like she's resolved the issue. Yay Clio! --Guppymomma 13:16, 19 January 2006 (PST)
- None of the images would work for me, might be a problem with Firefox. That does not seem to be logical since all the other images I could find worked. I looked at a few of the images. --pevarnj (t/c) 16:27, 19 January 2006 (PST)
- I didn't say she'd reuploaded all of them. Her test reupload that worked was --Guppymomma 16:40, 19 January 2006 (PST)
