About 1:30 this afternoon I ran a google search, and usually a line of four or five images responsive to the search appear near the top; however, this time, although there was a line identifying images responsive to the search there simply was a long rectangle which was blocked out. Moreover, on further search results as I scrolled down the page there were a few YouTube entries but where the screen capture from the video ordinarily would appear there was just a blacked out box.

Was this a failure of the images to load, and why did this happen?

I never experienced this before, and so I just closed out the tab, tried the same search, and the images and YouTube screen stills seemingly loaded properly.

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

  • Press the F10 key or tap the Alt key to bring up the hidden 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 check-mark then remove this check-mark 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.
