Tinypic embedded images no longer show in forums on Opera 12.17

[leuce]

Hello everyone

One of the browsers that I use is Opera 12.17 (on Windows 7, 64-bit). Recently, I found that embedded images in forums no longer show up in Opera, if the images are hosted on Tinypic. Does anyone know of a fix for this (something that I can do in Opera to make it work again)?

The problem is only with images hosted on TinyPic. Images hosted on e.g. Photobucket displays fine.

In some forums, the fact that there is an embedded image shows a "dead link" type of image (so I have a clue, at least, that there is an image that I can't see), but on other forums, the fact that there is an image is simply not visible to me (they can only be discovered when using quoted reply, which reveals the post's source code).

I tried the custom user agent trick mentioned here, but it doesn't work. I have the latest version of Flash installed.

[I do use Firefox and Chrome and Opera Blink, for other purposes (e.g. Gmail, Facebook), but for reading and posting in forums, Opera Presto is still the user-friendliness king.]

Thanks
Samuel

For example, I can't see this image:

but I can see this one:

I've still got opera 12.16 installed for testing and I can't see it either

I've just checked the page source code from within opera and all the images are there and where they should be, I can only assume that tinypic have changed their image rendering method and it's no longer compatible with such an old browser, maybe it's time to move on to something more up-to-date.
