My main browser is Firefox and I've not experienced the issue. Can you provide a link to a specific post where the issue is duplicated?
Regarding the Apple OS, that might be an issue we need to look further into as they don't always handle code the same as other browsers on other platforms.

www.weather.com is one site that does use lazy loading but it may not be 100% the same as CorvetteForum. How does that website work for you?
We will look into it.
Thanks.

The feature, or atleast principle, is used on a few websites but I can't say it's very common. So you may not see the issue on other websites because it may not be used.

I was just looking at this CF thread and noticed that all the still pics were fuzzy but all the videos are clear: https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...edition-y.html

In the CF link I just cited above, in post #9 the very first graphic ("Merry Melodies") shows fine, but all the other ones in that post are fuzzy. Also, in post #10 the graphic showing the cartoon doctor shows fine. Now to figure out why those two graphics differ from the fuzzy ones .....

That is the operating system currently installed on my iPad. ios12 is the latest version and I am actually installing it as we speak.
Bottom line is that my iMac, Macbook pro, and iPad are not having these issues for whatever reason. Good luck with yours.

IMac OS X El Capitan 10.11.6 with Safari 9.1.3. I am not computer literate enough to know what the extensions are. Pictures do not clear up even after 15 minutes.
No problems previously on CF or on any of the several other forums I am a member of.

Fuzzy - Unfocused Photos message thread links.
I will also "pile-on" regarding fuzzy unfocused photos in the message section of the threads.
I have an older Gen-3 iPad running 9…something Operating System?
I tried using Google - Bing - Yahoo - DuckDuck Go search engines --- no luck still fuzzy.
I did look at the weather channel sight as suggested - the photos had to be loaded by clicking around once loaded were OK.
I will check back in a few days to see if this photo issue is fixed, the sight is worthless without quick support photos.
Hopefully the "tech guys" at CF will get this resolved.
Thank You

I'm using the same iPad I've been using for 10 years. I didn't change anything whatever CF changed is the problem. They don't show up on my android ph either and I just got it. I'll second this site is not of much use with pics that don't load in a normal fashion.

Firefox on Windows is what I use primary and don't have the issue. The issue, by large, is those running Apple products for whatever reason. Those not on Apple products and not working is most likely the use of extensions that are filtering or altering the website, which we can't support.

I was just on my PC and the pics come up great but still will not come up ( other than fuzzy) on my Mac and both my IPad and IPhone. This has to be Apple /Mac related. Still, can't the tech people fix it or put it back the way it was before this problem. Love the forum, this new problem, not so much.
Thanks

I'm sure it will be fixed. Assuming those reporting the issue on Apple devices are in fact not using any extensions, programs, or uncommon browsers that are causing their issue. I state that because some on Apple devices have reported not experiencing the issue so it's not cut and dry as to what the issue is. As you noted, the issue is new so the process needs to be given time to find and resolve the issue since it's not a button to push to fix something.
Thanks.
That's not what others have been reporting (slow). You may have a different issue entirely. Sounds like a slow connection to the internet without any further information provided.

The quicker loading of inferior, low-quality images is a poorly thought-out "improvement." In fact, it's downright annoying and off-putting. I've opened a thread and waited 15 minutes for the fuzz to go away, but it doesn't clear up. As a result, I'm spending less time on CF and more time on other Corvette forums.
I truly give the IT group credit for working through this, but If this problem doesn't clear up, what other Corvette forums do you recommend?

First off I am completely computer illiterate if I get it to come on l consider that a good day. I have no add ons or exts. I don't frequent any other forums so as a test I went to IBbrands home page. I selected Mustang forums, Lstech forum, Camaro forum, Corvetteforums not Corvette forum and all loaded pics instantly. I would mistakenly assume that all of the forums under one brand would run the same platform. I guess not.
