yes, at least some blanks are ads, I try to live an ad-less life.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imgur

bitsnpcs:
Do you have a link for the imgur wikipedia page please, so I can read the detail of it ?

The blank spaces in the Guardian may be blocked adverts ?

Searchernow:
Re-reading my posts - I mentioned blank spaces n the Guardian, I should add that these are the exception, most images in the Guardian I can see ok.

I thought it could be the case, I had looked at imgur before it looked a bit snoopy to me, I use a different image host. https://imgbb.com/

You could check this post

and see if the png images I added display in your browsers, to determine if your browsers are blocking png image file type at other hosts, or whether it is only blocking imgur.

Thanks,
I opened that page and I do see your pic of a bee on flowers and a screenshot of "Panel window".

More generally, the wikipedia page for imgur reported a serious potential user data breach, though unlike yahoo they did notify users straight away.
