images on old threads

I notice old threads often have broken image icons where images ought to be. This one for example: Bill Ellis Ramapo - https://www.badgerandblade.com/forum/threads/bill-ellis-ramapo.35308/

In this case I was so curious to see this cool razor that I requested pictures from the user who apparently can still see them just fine! Was there some upgrade that didn't quite work which left old images with permission issues or something like that? Can you restore these ones as it sounds like they're still there?

Thanks, and thanks for everything, really appreciate this resource.
 
Hm, do you have a way as an admin to login as me? Or maybe just create a new account and try with that? Because from my semi-recent account I see this for Bill Ellis Ramapo - https://www.badgerandblade.com/forum/threads/bill-ellis-ramapo.35308/

And if I right click one of those broken images and try to view that specifically eg. https://www.badgerandblade.com/forum/media/10729/full I get this:

Meanwhile, all images on posts from the last few years work fine, it tends just to be on stuff from a while ago.
 
Yes I'm logged in. My account is from Nov 2018 or thereabouts, I imagine yours predates mine by a bit? I'd be interested if anyone with a newer account can see them?

And wow, this is the first I'm seeing of that blade, that is quite the thing, now I'm curious if from other angles it retains any traces of its former self... hope we can get this resolved as there are several posted there.

I’m new and I can’t see them. Using an iPad.

It could be chrome, I cant view the images on chrome on my mac or chrome on my android phone. I suppose it could also be an apple/mobile formatting issue.
 
I'm using Firefox on Linux and Android but based on the "you do not have permission" error from my second screenshot, I estimate the likelihood of seeing the images has more to do with account than browser.

I also have the same problem. My thoughts were that these pics were from when B&B didn't host their own and relied on links to other sites, like Photobucket. That's where the problem could lie.

No, the images are at B&B, but the location of them is off limits to some members and not others. Could be a permissions change since an upgrade or something. I've only been here less than two years. I'm guessing many of you that can see them have been around much longer and your accounts retained permissions to those locations somehow while newer members have not.

Here is some of the code behind the page with the missing images

<img src="https://www.badgerandblade.com/forum/media/10726/full" data-url="https://www.badgerandblade.com/forum/media/10726/full" class="bbImage" data-zoom-target="1" style="" />

So if some of you click on this
you will see a photo or a permissions error.

Ahh interesting. I do not have permission, I have been a member since November of 2017. I wonder when the cut off is?

Age of one's existence here is my guess, but it could be something else. Maybe members were at one time assigned to a particular role and are not any longer assigned that role or any number of things. Or those that can see it are members of a different role because they donated or were part of something here over the years. Hard to say. It's going to take an admin digging into the forum permissions and a test account or user to verify that the images are see-able after a change.
 
I was trying to look at brush restoration
it would seem that there used to be pictures but I don’t even see the empty boxes or bad links
