Looking over the thumbnails, I notice a lot of them are not visible, just a white empty space. Why is that? I noticed mine also is missing (I had entered the Rocks, Paper, Scissors challenge), and the thumbnail is not there. Just curious. Thanks.

Oops, sorry--disregard. I found some info on this with a Google search.

This is typically due to popup blockers, firewalls and similar.

Have you recently changed or added any new security software? Norton seems to have issues with this once in a while, and you may need to add dpchallenge.com to the trusted or allowed sites.

The ad blocking portion of Norton Internet Security is one of the main culprits for other members here too. You can fix it without disabling ad blocking also.
To copy/paste John Setzler's reported fix on it: (not taking credit for his help he posted on this back in January)

1. Go to the ad blocking and choose the 'configure' option.

2. Press the 'advanced' button to configure ad blocking for individual websites.

3. Press the 'add site' button to add 'www.dpchallenge.com' to the sites list.

4. Select 'www.dpchallenge.com' from the list and then press the 'add' button.

5. In the html string window, enter "/" without the quotation marks and select the 'permit' radio button.

6. Press OK and work your way back to the top level.

This will resolve the issue of missing thumbnails caused by NIS 2004.

Maybe should be rephrased to "OMG, I'm so happy! Brad, I suspect you have no life, probably have had that happen to you before and were just lucky you remembered where to look on the site for the fix."
The "That worked like a charm. Thanks!" can stay as is.
LOL

Glad you solved it Jean.
