Images Not Loading On Neowin? Solution Here


Recommended Posts

If Neowin loads similarly to the picture below, here is how you fix it. You can do one of two things:

1) Clear out your cache

2) Simply press CTRL+F5

This has been asked A LOT in the past few days and it's getting out of hand. Please keep it all in this one thread.

AFAIK, It's just CSS caching problem

What I do is set the browser cache to 0 so I never see this problem. Unless your are on dailup there is no real NEED to have a cache anyway, in my book.

Here's how: Tools/options/privacy/cache then change that value "Use up to _____ KB of disk space for cache" to 0 (zero).

And I never see this problem, I like my webpages to be current anyway no cache stuff.

that also hurts Neowin because it has to download more each time you visit.

bangbang023: you just point out all my mistake huh? you got something against me?? LOL J/K I welcome other points of view. Your always right when you do it anyway. I'll have to reconsider this then, but it's not just because of this error that I do it. I've always done this, ever since I got on broadband. I've notice that I hardly ever get rendering errors (that others complain about, be it Fx or IE), and I'm willing to bet this setting is why, no conflicts this way. However, if you don't want everyone doing this. Your welcome to remove it. I don't want to put a burden on Neowin...last thing I want.

i have the same problem ... some image always gets left unloaded :( ... also all the image holders have changed as can be seen in the image ... any ideas what mayb wrong???

IIRC thats adblock that changes the placeholder.

I had it once in Firefox when I mistakenly clicked and dragged Neowin into my image block list... took me ages to figure out why Neowin wouldn't load correctly. :blush: I don't even know how I managed it... :unsure:

Yeah, me too. It's annoying as hell, but I'm not giving up CCleaner :p

I use ccleaner and everything looks fine for me, maybe it's the method I use. btw, I changed to the lite version skin to help with the load for Neowin per bangbang023's pointing out the load that having 0 cache can create for Neowin. Hope that evens it out some.

Thanks for the consideration dude, but make sure you aren't upsetting your browsing habits at all by switching skins. You are a subscriber, afterall, so you have given to Neowin in other ways already.

Thanks bangbang023, but I'm really liking the way the pages load faster now. I tried it before, but didn't give it much of a chance.

@BeLGaRaTh,

Thanks for the reply. I couldn't thank you in the original thread as it was already closed.

@bangbang023,

Trust me I searched the forum before opening the thread. I don't know why but the thread you point (actually this one) does not appear in the search results. Try and search for 'ccleaner firefox skin'.

So who's to blame here? Crap cleaner or firefox? :blink:

    • WhatsApp slams Isreali firm, NSO Group, for trying to spy on its users by David Uzondu WhatsApp has come out accusing Israeli cyber-intelligence firm, NSO Group, of deploying a fresh wave of highly targeted "spear phishing" attacks against users, which its security teams successfully thwarted. The Israeli firm, according to WhatsApp, ran this operation like its usual one-click phishing campaigns, trying to get people to click malicious links that lead them to external sites. To coordinate the campaign, the spyware vendor created fake test accounts and groups on the messaging app. WhatsApp said it is sharing the specific malicious domains, ikhwancast[.]com, ghazacast[.]com, and fr24cast[.]com, because potential victims need this data to check if they were targeted across other messaging systems or email platforms. The NSO Group is infamous for creating and selling Pegasus, a military-grade commercial spyware capable of silently compromising smartphones simply by sending a message or placing a missed call via apps like WhatsApp or iMessage. Users do not even have to interact with the incoming notification before the infection takes hold. Once Pegasus manages to break in, the spyware harvests private data, letting operators read private messages, emails, photos, and documents. It also tracks precise GPS locations, records keystrokes, activates the device's camera, and monitors live microphone audio. Independent investigations by cybersecurity watchdogs like The Citizen Lab and human rights organizations like Amnesty International have proven that governments use this software to track humanitarian workers, journalists, diplomats, and political dissidents. These findings directly contradict NSO Group claims that clients use the technology to spy on criminals and terrorists only. In late 2021, the U.S. Department of Commerce added the firm to its Entity List, effectively banning the vendor from buying hardware and software from American tech companies. WhatsApp said in its blog post that the spyware vendor violated a permanent court injunction with this new spear-phishing campaign. This injunction, which took effect in 2025, strictly prohibited NSO Group from targeting WhatsApp and its users. The platform is now asking a federal court to hold the firm in contempt.
    • It would be surprising if even 3 year old Apple Watches (and not SE models at that) cannot run watchOS 27. Granted, it doesn't mean it would work as well. We'll see.
    • Apple launches new website for parents and a revamped Screen Time experience by Aditya Tiwari At WWDC 2026, Apple announced new parental control features for iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and macOS 27 to keep kids' device usage in check and keep them safe online. As a parent, you'll get access to a simpler setup experience, Ask to Browse, Time Allowances, and a redesigned Screen Time. You'll be able to pick exactly which apps your child can access on their device, choosing from just a few essential apps, a curated set, or the apps you feel are appropriate. There will be an option to gradually add more apps. Ask to Browse is a new feature that requires kids to request permission before visiting a new website in Safari on iPhone, iPad, or Mac. You can also turn on a setting that requires your kid to ask for approval before connecting with an unknown contact via Messages, FaceTime, or the Phone app. You can manage your child's screen time more effectively with Time Allowances that work across categories, including Games, Entertainment, and Social Media. You can set time limits based on your kid's age and get suggestions informed by expert research. Speaking of expert guidance, Apple added that it's working with the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) to adapt its Family Media Plan to create a guide parents can refer to when using Apple products. Moreover, the company has also set up a new dedicated website, where you can find tools, resources, and answers to common questions around parental controls and child safety. Apple also allows parents to set daily schedules to manage screen time, configuring access to different apps at different times of the day and across the week. Overall, the Screen Time section has been revamped and provides a bird's-eye view of your kid's average device usage and most-used apps. "For example, to help protect important family moments, parents can quickly limit access during meals, outdoor play, and other times that deserve full attention. If kids need a little extra time to finish something in an app, parents can also easily extend access," Apple said. Apart from these, Communication Safety has been updated to block gore or violent content when detected in shared images or videos. The feature already blurs nudity in Messages and FaceTime calls, and is enabled by default for users under 18.
    • They already threw the Ultra 1st gen under the bus? It really feels like someone screwed up, and that advanced AI features will only be available on the list above but someone screwed up and said that Watch OS 27 in general will only be available for those models. I think they will pull it back. I did see someone also put a snap shot of their series 9 watch being offered the watch os 27 beta. As the backlash online is already in full swing.
