Mistake I made, I have blocked images from "gravatar.com" and so I can'tsee or publish images from this site, How can I manage??

  1. Visit the page in question.
  2. Right-click an empty area of the page and choose View Page Info.
  3. Click the Permissions icon.
  4. Next to "Load images", check "Use default".

Can you explain what the problem is in more detail?

Can you see your gravatar next your posts on this page?

Normally, you simply set up your avatar at Gravar.com. If you're on a site that supports Gravatar (like this one), you might need to select that option in your profile settings or user control panel. Then the site fetches the avatar based on the e-mail address you used to register.

If images are missing then check that you do not block images from some domains.

  • Tap the Alt key or press F10 to show the Menu bar.

Check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"

Check "Tools > Page Info > Media" for blocked images

  • Select the first image link and use the cursor Down key to scroll through the list.
  • If an image in the list is grayed and "Block Images from..." has a checkmark then remove this checkmark to unblock images from this domain.

Make sure that you do not block (third-party) images, the permissions.default.image pref on the about:config page should be 1.

Make sure that you haven't enabled a High Contrast theme in the Windows/Mac Accessibility settings.

Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own colors.

  • Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Colors : [X] "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above"

Note that these settings affect background images.

There are extensions like Adblock Plus (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images and other content.

Thanks a lot once more! Yes, I can see your image.

I have been on the site "gravatar.com" and saw I had the images blocked (so I removed the cross...) I'll try to restart my computer to check!

Have a very good day,Catcath
