• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

I assume this question probably doesn't belong to this forum, but I'm not sure where it does, so I thought I wouldn't break anything seriously if I post it here, since this is the forum I mostly read:

I've noticed I can see the images included in forum messages directly when browsing through the forum unlogged, whereas I can only see the links once logged in, so I need to click on every link to see the image. Is that normal?

Thanks in advance and sorry for any inconvenience.

I don’t think so. I am traveling and viewing on my iPad. I can see the Screenshots images, signed in or not.
 
I'm not sure, but I think hot-linked images are public, but you have to be logged in for attached images and other files. Most of the Screenshots thread is images hosted on other sites like Imgur or Flickr.

You are spot right on.

You have to log into see attachments

External links to images should show up if you are not logged on
