Broken Images

I logged on to my blog today to find that all my images were broken, even the image for my header. I received comments from readers saying they couldn’t see the images, either, and after refreshing my browser a few times, I realized that this isn’t just a problem with my browser since other people are also having trouble seeing the images on my blog.

None of the images on my blog are X-rated. They’re all just screenshots from The Sims 3. I’m well under my 3G limit for images and the images do show up when I edit my posts in Visual mode. They just don’t show up on the blog.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I rely on my images to help tell the stories I write on my blog.

Thanks.

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

May be temporal as I am having the same problem and my images have just started showing up again.

Mine, too! (http://letsplaymath.net/, which is a WordPress.com blog)

Is this a WordPress-wide problem, or is it just affecting a few of us?

(That is, mine are missing. They haven’t started showing up yet.)

Ditto. They’re missing save one.

Hm, maybe WordPress is just having technical difficulties, then. I really do hope it gets resolved soon.

Well, seems to be a wordpress problem. We logged in a few minutes ago, and all our images, including the header, are missing. Perhaps, someone from wordpress could address this problem??

Same issue. Things are slow as well. Perhaps they’re working on something in the background.

@ashleigh825 I can’t see any broken images at http://thecharmlegacy.wordpress.com/ right now. Can you please try clearing browser cache and then if the images are still not working can you reply with an example image URL that is not working for you?

Now my blog won’t even load. I would really like a WordPress staff member to notify us of downtime.

I don’t mind occasional downtime to keep the site maintained, but it is a little irksome when our blogs go down without being notified. I’d like to give my readers forewarning of any downtime via my Twitter page, at least.

@designsimply Yes, at times the images appear to be restored, only to break again a few moments later. It’s very sporadic. My blog also loaded just now, but a few moments ago, I was getting error messages.

@ashleigh825-images are now appearing for me as well on your blog.

@designsimply, everything is very slow loading right now. Am occasionally getting 504 Gateway Timeout errors on my blog and dashboard.

Not just an image/header loading issue any longer. Unable to access anything within wordpress. Unable to gain access to the dashboard.

My site won’t load either and I am not able to make a new post.

There is more than one thing going on here. We’re working on the load issues now. Then we’ll figure out what’s going on with the images next.

Okay thank you. I just wanted to know that someone was looking into the issues. :)
