I just posted this new thread:

https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...-veterans.html

For some reason the link I pasted does not show, but it shows when I did preview before posting?

Link that doesn't show (if it shows):
Doesn't show agin

Space after "https:" so link shows

It appears to be due to https and iframe for how the media is handled in addition to browser practices. IE appears to work out of the box but Firefox and Chrome do not unless mixed content is allowed in settings. What you posted, albeit a link, is automatically converted to display as an image to make sharing content easier. It appears this is part of the issue in this case.

We'll have to investigate.

Thanks
