It took me a while to figure out why my "icon images" were not displaying in IE.

It seems to have to do with the "align" property. It is clearly being aligned left or right, but with my IE6 i see no image at all. Any idea why this is?

Works perfectly fine in Opera.

You are using XP with SP2 and have the adblocker turned on.

Well what can I do? How does the "align" property suddenly cause it to be some crazy thing?

Well, the thing is... even IF it is the adblocker... Potential visitors may have this (I am not even sure what u are talking about?) and I am dumbfounded about how this would cause an image to "take up room" but not display...

the Sp2 adblocker and many others, remove images from the page by removing the value of the src attribute if the image is in a certain size range or has a name that matches a group of values.
Your image is probably the same size as standard ad banners so is blocked.

and yes that's correct other people may be blocking it as well. why?

Because they are simply not interested in it so why should they bother downloading it!

Just because you think it's the coolest thing ever, doesn't mean every one should.

I changed an image name from pcvirus.gif to abc.gif. I made width="43" and height="43"... so?
