Some cleansing action gone wrong?

The posters for Stagecoach and Mr. Nobody don't load. Also the images for Peter Clemenza and Sal Tessio on the The Godfather - Corleone Family Associates page. What's strange on the Corleone Family Associates is that only those two images aren't loading; everything else is fine.

^ It also seems to have affected your current profile image.

I also noticed it on Tropical-Rouge! Pretty Cure and Tropical-Rouge! Pretty Cure, though some images in the latter page (like Sango's and Laura's) are fine.

@eroock and Twiddler

That's odd, both images look fine on my end.

Having checked the other pages, only Fate/Prototype has something wrong with them in my view.

Some examples for me include: The Signal (2007), Stealth Insult, Sonic R, Waking Up Elsewhere, Earthflight, and Mountain of Food.

What is going on with the site?

Adding to say that Digital Devil Story's page also has a broken image on my end.

Seems like image-related bugs are becoming more common ever since the server migration.

Almost all the character images for Skullgirls broke as well. So did the page image for Adaptational Jerkass. Something is SERIOUSLY wrong.

What's really weird is that when I come to check those reported pages, most of them have their images appear fine on my end. For me, this issue mostly affects character pages. Having an image appear fine to one person but broken to another is truly a strange issue. I use Firefox, Windows.

All those images are working for me *except* for the ones pointed out by k410ren, for some reason. I'm on Chrome, Windows 10.

I rechecked the page just now and it was fine, which is weird. Earlier I tried getting in the page through both PC and mobile, and refreshed both, and it wasn't showing.

Maybe it's some kind of bug or internet connection thing?

The only images that have been blank for me have been some specific users avatars

I noticed this myself and made a Bugs report about it. The pfp of one of the mods, lu127, won't show.

Here's the link to the image that popped up when I opened in another tab:

^Same for the page in question. And now some of the Characters.Fate Grand Order won't load either (though I checked only one of the many pages)

Maybe we should go to the bug thread and cite this ATT?

^ The image on the page won't load. That is what I am referring to.

When I click on the image in a new tab it tells me "502 Bad Gateway."

Also happened to a few avatars in my gallery and others' galleries

Interestingly, it doesn't seem to be the same images for everyone - someone else said an image was broken for them and it loaded fine for me

Can confirm the same has been happening for me on some pages, and that the images affected seem to be random. While they're both back now, the TV Tropes logo and Random Trope/Random Media buttons in the header weren't showing up a few minutes ago.

clearly things are going well.

According to the admins, the image server was getting overloaded; they're looking into it but I don't have any idea of when it'll be fixed.

Unfortunately this still seems to be an issue — Mr. Exposition won't load for me. Is there a bulletin for this?

I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.

I don't see any bulletins here, and that image is broken on my end too.
