Instead of a picture I'll get a blank box.

See * Fix problems that cause images to not show

  • A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon (Site Identification icon) on the left side of the location bar.
  • A click on the "More Information" button will open the Security tab of the "Page Info" window (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
  • Open the Media tab of the "Page Info" window.
  • Select the first image and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow key.
  • If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "Block Images from..." then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
  • You can see the permissions for the domain in the current tab in Tools > Page Info > Permissions
  • You can see all image exceptions in Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions
