Blurry and sideways.

No, not because this is Saturday night!
I am new to this forum, but not forums in general. Most every post that has a pic is blurry to me (see below). I thought it just takes time to load, but that isn't even it. I can wait 10 mins. Nothing. I frequent 4 other forums and have never experienced this. Any ideas? Also, when I post a pic, it always displays sideways. No, not because I took the pic horiz with my phone. I can post a pic on another forum and it is normal. Post same pic here. Sideways. Wtf?
Also, this site loads sooo slowly compared to all the others I frequent. Even the F150 site

which has even more users/posts.
Not bitching, just curious. Love the site btw!

Glad it's not just me. This has just recently started happening here for me in the paste week or two or three. Some come clear but others show like yours until I click on them.

I posted that picture. It looked correct when I had it on my local computer and it looked correct on the site after I posted it. The site is doing funny things to images. Usually, I have to wait a few seconds for the image to render completely.

In summary: It's not you, it's the site. But a slow connection is likely to make the problem worse.

Hmm, MS rolled out the October update recently. I'm not sure if my PC has it yet or not. The timing is suspicious.

Glad to hear it is not just me I guess. I have only been here a couple weeks.
Pretty sure it has nothing to do with connection speed, on my end anyway. I travel a lot and I and have logged in from about 10 different places and all have this problem. Again, I have no issue with any other sites or forums.
I did just check for updates for my ipad. All up to date.
Frusturating as a lot of times pics help with a problem and would like to see it.

Does touching the blurry picture not work for you? Always loads picture on a different page for me.

the blurry pics happen to me on my android, but after a moment of loading, the pics show up clearly. MS halted the 1809 update, as they are seeing some major problems. Funny, as on Friday I had a conversation about creating an 1809 image for deployment. Glad I didn't waste any time on that one..
