I had a search in google for images not showing up for chrome users. There were literally dozens and dozens but I couldn't actually find a real fix. Something to do with the speed of chrome and something to do with something called adblock. It was all pretty confusing actually.

I'm curious though what happens if you load a page here and then hit "refresh"? Does that make any difference?

Can you see everyone else's avatars and images?

If not just check something... right click mouse on the box where your avatar should be, and then go down to the bottom of the list where it says "View Image Info". Go to "Permissions" and make sure "Load Images" is clicked "Allow.

Only other thing I can think of off the top of my head is to clear cookies and empty cache and see if that makes any difference
