Post Strange behavior with FireFox
Hi everyone,

I've noticed that when I post links to images or pdfs on my webpage in a forum post, Firefox refuses to display them here. Chrome and Safari seem fine with them. Any thoughts?

Firefox is not displaying images from remote sites by default. This is a security measure to reduce tracking. Advertisers use tiny hidden images to see when and where you’ve been browsing. Firefox is very aggressive about protecting us from spying.
