I would guess a DNS lookup issue, but weird nevertheless. Dunno what my bb10 (O2UK) dns settings are.

Perhaps there's a whole world of funny pics out there which you're oblivious to. :)

This is like one of those social experiments, where everybody stares up at the sky and pretends they see something.  Or like "the emperor's new clothes".  I'll wait for a screenshot of this supposed picture, kthx!  ;)

Here ya go:

:-P

It appears that this thread has thrown our respective DNS servers into an ontological disagreement.
Let's not push it too far, or the Internet might have a full-blown existential crisis.

PS - the url is http://1.1.1.2/bmi/th00.deviantart.net/fs39/PRE/f/2008/320/6/8/Another_Zelda_Meme_ARGH_by_rueyeet.jpg

...could be some mobile-network-type url mashing.

Some additional info on the problem:

http://websupporter.net/blog/mobile-users-attention-editing-blogposts-from-mobile-can-inject-wrong-image-paths/

Something for the admins to look at (perhaps add these url prefixes/domains to a blacklist?) - can't see that it could be realistically solved at the client end either way (when posting, or when viewing).

Mobile phones: is there anything they can't break?
