Thanks for looking Steve, glad you found the gallery too. Not sure what happened to the images on the post here though - all done the same way from the same place? : I now cannot see the first ones either...im a bit of an old mining fan so good to see these images, well only the last is visible to me, but i went to pbase to see the rest, you have some good stuff there. Thanks for posting.
Will fix, stay tuned.

Greytop, thoughton, Weldingblues, and PentaxRocks,
Apologies unsure as to what occurred, but will re-post the ones with faulty links here.
Coming up below!
And lo and behold, the ones in the OP now appear to work as well (at least, they do in preview mode)... Ah the mysteries of technology

They aren't displaying for me now either, but did before on two re-visits.
OK - suggestion time: given the linking to images was the same throughout, are there any wiser heads with ideas please? Are there any site issues that may cause this? Or 'undocumented features' with pbase perhaps? What strikes me is that one of the four images has successfully linked and displayed from the start...
Ideas welcome.

It's something to do with the way you are enclosing them in the IMG tag. The images work, if I right-click one of your 'broken link' symbols and choose 'Open link in new window' I can see it.
The way it works for me is I paste the direct jpeg link (e.g. http://blahblah.blah.com/blahblah.jpg), highlight everything from 'http' to 'jpg', then click the 'Image' button. That should do it. Are you sure there isn't a stray space or something in the broken ones? Or you didn't click the 'Link' button instead of the 'Image' button?

Just testing the three image links in your latest post:
Edit: When I previewed this one of these images didn't show up, so it might also be a pbase issue...

They don't seem to work reliably. Could it be that pbase doesn't allow hotlinking?
