Basically tapatalk is seeing the picture link as broken or bad which is weird since the two different forums use the same IMG tags.

Screen shot this page so that I can see what happens with this picture. Can you also paste a direct link to the page you screen shot.

This is from Tapatalk. I get a lot of broken picture links also on Tapatalk but figured it was something with them. I also don't get any avatars on Tapacrap

It is mostly due to Tapatalk but that doesn't mean something can't be done to at least make it better. Hopefully @LWM will have some insight when they drop by. This feedback is really helpful in determining what can be done :)

Why do you guys use tapatalk?

The new forum design looks great in a regular smartphone browser.

So it appears to work using a known good link like the google image. Are the broken images from forum uploads?

I think so normally

I have never understood why people use the limited upload on the forum vs. a hosting site that gives better quality (usually larger) pics and is completely free. Guessing it is a communication error between tapatalk and forum hosted pics but unfortunately I have no knowledge in this part of the workings :sorry:

No its not fixed. Yes that's the right thread. And is there a better app than tapatalk?

I would recommend just using the browser for at least the time being.

Is there a way to make the watched/subscribed threads be easier to identify on the new/today's post page?

Maybe making that little eye at the end of the thread title line blue?

Yes, that is rather faint and hard to see on the dark background. I made it slightly bigger and bluer.

Did you by chance do something? No my tapatalk app won't let me on the forum at all. Says"network error try again later has ever since I deleted and reinstalled the app earlier today. ?

No. He can't "do anything" in that regards :D
