this has stopped working for me & i'm not sure why or whether it's just me.

[soph]

Oh, poo, I know why. It's because I renamed my journal yesterday, so all the images are pointing to the old name.

I'll go update it, hold on.

[shutter]

oh, good! i thought i was just going crazy. thanks for being speedy :>

[soph]

Actually, I just realised that I haven't had a version that points to my pictures for ages now, just in case this happened, so you must have an older version. You should just be able to update to the new one. (They've pointed to ljskins_images's space for some time now)

[shutter]

hm, but when it stopped working, i went & reinstalled everything just in case & it still didn't work. i did it again just now, nada. i guess it's on my end, but hell if i can realize why.

[shutter]

oh, it's because livejournal is ridiculous & i have been having problems with scrapbook for months now (that they won't fix). a re-log in fixed it.

[soph]

Oh, glad to hear it! What exactly is the bug though? I haven't come across it.

[shutter]

it's like i get logged out of scrapbook or something & i'm unable to see any picture that's hosted through it until i re-log in. lj support said they can't help me because i'm apparently the only one that has reported it (even though i have helped a handful of other people with the same issue).

[soph]

Do you use LJLogin at all? It doesn't log you into ScrapBook so sometimes things like that can happen with it.

[shutter]

nope, i don't use any lj add-ons other than greasemonkey scripts:

livejournal preview images from inside cuts
livejournal location of anonymous commenter
lj friend-of unhide
lj thread expander
lj new comments
my lj style
lj skins class adder + dystopic vertigo

here's my support post: http://www.livejournal.com/support/see_request.bml?id=977690

Hah, I see they already went through all that with you. :D

Hmm, that's an odd one. One thing they didn't ask in that request is what happens if you clear your cookies for livejournal.com (and thus get rid of your login information). I've come across some weird oddities sometimes that can be fixed by clearing the cookies for a site - you might want to try that and see if it helps at all. (Make sure you clear *all* the livejournal.com cookies, including pics.livejournal.com and any others ending in that domain. Then, log back in again.)

Or have you already tried that? If so, sorry. :x I'm not entirely sure what could be causing the problem in that case.

[shutter]

i'm pretty sure i have. i'm kind of used to re-logging in now, this was just the first time it had effected the lj skin. i get to do that until other people decide to report it, yay!

[soph]

Huh, that's strange. See, I *used* to have my ScrapBook host these images, but then I moved them over to ljskins_images, so naturally my first thought given that I renamed yesterday was that it was that. I guess maybe not.

Could you do me a favour, though? Could you go into Stylish's styles list, click Edit on the "LJ Skin: Visions v2 - Dystopic Vertigo" one, and check that the line on the fifth line of the script reads the same as below?

background-image: url(http://pics.livejournal.com/ljskins_images/pic/00002t1p) !important;

If it does, could you then check to see if you can actually see the picture at http://pics.livejournal.com/ljskins_images/pic/00002t1p ?

Thanks. <3
