It's usually that the source file has been moved or deleted. Quite common on older posts.

Hi

Here is a test picture.....

If you can see this then the older posts were hosting pictures elsewhere and have now been deleted or moved....

All the best Brett

I had this with some of my own old posts. The site administrators were able to dig out the source files, which allowed me to update the posts. No idea why they had disappeared in the first place though.

Some old threads lost their pictures when the site was restored from backups after various hacking incidents. If it's really important, I might be able to locate individual missing pictures in archive files I have, but it's a tedious and thankless task
