All pictures turned partially grey!
« on: April 14, 2014, 05:29:23 AM »
Good Morning, Computer Hope!

It appears to me that some kind of video driver of mine has to be broken, as my problem is rather severe.
I attached a screenshot of a gallery on www.deviantart.com, and half of the thumbnails turned grey.

This was not the case yesterday. I started my pc this morning, with it my browser (which is currently Google Chrome). I opened up the website again just to find all of the thumbnails being grey.

Upon following the link of one of the pictures, the whole picture showed (not just the thumbnail). This time without the grey part in it.
It occured to me that once I restart my pc, and having the browser load up on "Continue where I left off", the whole pictures turns grey as well this time.

This will then stay grey forever, no matter how often I refresh the page.

When I download the picture, the grey will stay on it.

I hope there is some kind of solution to this. Please ask more questions if you don't get anything I just described in a more panicking state.
Many Thanks in Advance,
~Medallyonify

That if i had to guess seems to be a connection issue to me...likely when you were uploading to deviantart they did not finish uploading when the cionnection timed out...

No they aren't.

The thing is, they STAY grey!

I can't seem to get them right, no matter what.

I did not upload them.

Looks to me like a download problem. Remember you can use Ctrl+F5 to force a full reload of the page, which will not use cached images.
I was trying to dereference Null Pointers before it was cool.
