Unable to attach images to posts. I click the nifty Img button, but nothing happens.

I can add Videos and Links, but not pictures. I had a witty picture to use in a topic, but I couldn't add an image.

I re-loaded the page, logged out and back into gamespot, I even disabled adblocker - still cannot load/link an image to topics.

Odd, I don't know what's causing this issue on my computer at work, but I don't have the problem at home. The same issue at work under IE 11 (most current version) and the Img button doesn't work. I can use the Video and Link buttons for posting, but the Img doesn't work.

At home I can post images if I want using Chrome, Win 7 Home Premium 64bit. I've posted images at work before on the same computer - nothing has changed to my knowledge since I'm the only one that uses this computer.

Chrome/Win 7 works

Work:

Chrome Win7 64b doesn't work

Chrome Win7 IE11 doesn't work

This is really late (forgot about it since it's not a big deal since I don't really post much from work, just browse mostly), but yes, the above you listed is correct.

I just tried the "Image" button again here at work and it does nothing for me. If no one else has complained of a similar issue I wouldn't concern yourself with it. It has to be something with the computer I'm using or the firewall at work. I don't do the IT admin stuff here so I don't know if the firewall is to blame, but we did get a new firewall about the time I noticed this issue. I'm not about to ask the IT guy to dig through things for a minor issue on something I shouldn't really be doing at work anyway.

@neatfeatguy: Alright, cool, thanks for the update. Yeah, we haven't had any other reports of this, so there might just be something wacky with your work system, but I'll definitely keep an eye out for new reports.
