Hello guys,

I've been trying to post pictures on the site but whenever i open the post i've just written there is just a lil blue box with something like fiestaturbo.com/phpBB/faq.php#21 or something like that... How do i correct this?

taken from the FAQ

Why do I see the fiestaturbo.com logo instead of images?
This site operates a checking script to prevent remote linking to images. You will need to set the privacy rules on your firewall to allow it to track referers for http://www.fiestaturbo.com. Consult the documentation that came with your firewall to find out how to do this.

Can you tell that the text in the image is a web address? Is it obvious what to do or not?

I'm genuinely interested to see if people are able to work out why they are not working. If it's not clear I'll need some other way of alerting people to firewall problems.
