I was able to get things working as they should by restoring a recent back up of my system drive.

Wow, thanks for the string drewfx, and davehawley for pointing to this issue.
I added the string with the / at the end, and landed up with my forums temporarily unavailable?
Deleted the / and pasted:

image/gif, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, application/x-ms-application, application/vnd.ms-xpsdocument, application/xaml+xml, application/x-ms-xbap, application/x-shockwave-flash,

Finally all images seem to work again, even the banner and avatar on my Youtube channel are now visible.
Have to test it more carefully, but it looks alright.

With regards

Glad it worked for you!
:cheers:
The */* at the end of the string was added as without it there seemed to be problems with asp pages, although it seemed fine for me without it.
I added it and everything still seemed to be fine.
BTW I assume you did include the asterisks before and after the forward slash?
I only ask because the forum software removes them in posts if you don't put dummy back slashes in front of them! It should be "asterisk-forward slash-asterisk" (without the quotes of course).

We have a "Formatting with Markdown" thread in "Forum feedback" - revise it, please. Anybody can do just fine with backticks

Thanks joshl, but I don't need to be told that thank you very much!
I'm well aware of how to use Markdown, I've just never understood why I should have to when every other forum I use you just get what you type!

Hi davehawley

I added indeed first the asterisks and / at the end, but that caused a problem.
(I noticed they didn't show up in my posting which I couldn't edit)
Anyway it's still working.

The "forum temporarily unavailable error" reappeared.
Maybe one of the plugins causes that problem?
Disabling all of them restored at least loading.
The forums load alright with my other browsers including all plugins.
Have to figure that out.

Thanks

Found another problem
On the youtube channel, the banner won't show up under certain conditions.

This is what it should be.

The funny thing is, that it appears correct in the direct bookmark-link,
but not if I get to "My channel" in the menulist.

Found the latest issue, because "content blocking" was set.

Ah, that would have been it!
Glad you finally sorted it out.

Thanks Davehawley for your help.

Could you perhaps have a look at https://forums.opera.com/topic/9739/opera-12-video-hidden/4

Thanks Dave. The string resolved the photobucket image display issue on both the fubar and ultimatetemptation web sites.

Since that was bothering me as well.. I just quickly drew a Userscript..
it basically ajax calls the image (accepting nothing but images)
and then adding the images base64 as the source
(since it's quick and dirty.. it only accepts jpegs as it is) feel free to modify.

// ==UserScript==
// @include http://*
// ==/UserScript==
window.fi_aj =function( url, elem )
{
	var xmlhttp;
	elem.src = "images/misc/progress.gif";
	if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
	{// code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari
		xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
	}
	else
	{// code for IE6, IE5
		xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
	}
	xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function()
	{
		if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200)
		{
			var buffer =  xmlhttp.response;
			if(buffer)
				elem.src = "data:image/jpeg;base64," +  btoa(buffer);
		}
	}
	xmlhttp.open("GET", url ,true);
	xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Accept","image/*");
	xmlhttp.overrideMimeType('text\/plain; charset=x-user-defined');
	xmlhttp.send();
}

window.fix_pb = function()
{
	var images = document.getElementsByTagName("img");
	for (var i = 0; i < images.length; i++)
	{
		var url = images[i].src;
		if(url.indexOf("photobucket") > -1)
			window.fi_aj( url, images[i]);
	}
}

window.addEventListener('load', window.fix_pb);

AS you can see, very basic functionality... but it works much better than globally editing the ACCEPT
at least for me
