I have created a gif in photoshop. It has two frames displayed for 4 seconds each and is on a loop forever.
For some reason the image freezes on the second frame and does not continue to load in some browsers (The exact information about browsers and / or versions is unclear at the moment but it has happened in the latest version of chrome).
The image is embedded in the code in the standard way, no javascript is used and nothing is changing the element.
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? Everything I have searched for so far seems to result in people saying "Oh, I forgot to put make the gif loop forever" instead of any real reasons for causing this problem.
Thank you for your help!
Edit: Sorry I didn't think about putting an image in the original post. He is an example of one advert which doesn't seem to work.
Because the current image displays correctly in everything I've tryed so far, try to create image in different application.
Some applications you may try:
GIMP - tutorial
Some freeware crap.
I'd vote for GIMP. Its complicated, but its free and it has wide user suport.
If you still fail...
Now its time to check the enviroment. First, open the image on different machine. Maybe there is something wrong with your browser instalation. In this case, reinstall.
Try to upload on different server. Maybe your browser does not correctly decompress deflated data or has other communication issues.

My application fails to print after the latest security update.
None of the API calls fail, yet the images don't show even in PDF. Text and shapes like lines print fine.
The code loads a JPG image using IPicture interface and OleLoadPicture(). Then I use its Render() call to convert it into a HBITMAP and finally StretchBlt() on printing HDC.
None of the calls fail, all return values are checked. Everyhing worked fine until today and latest Windows security updates. Sure, if I uninstall KB5000808 update on my computer or KB5000802 on my client's computer everything is back to normal but this is not a long term solution.
Anyone having similar problems as of today? Any idea how to solve this? Any other way to print images?
EDIT:
Same problem even if I use a bitmap instead of a JPG image. So there's no problem with JPG rendering. On the other hand, both JPG and BITMAP show on the screen. Only printing does not work.
I solved by using StretchDIBits instead of StretchBlt win32 api
I have create a PNG arrow graphic for use in a client's website. It render's perfectly everywhere except in IE 6,7,8 and 9. I have attached an image for you to examine and have already tried 2 different IE png fix scripts - one jquery and one a css behaviour .htc file.
Please assist me.
Thanks

Sorry to say that but for 5 years i've been looking for 100% working hack for png transparency bug in IE's with no result. There are many of them and usually each of them doesn't work here and there.
Try using transparent gif instead or crop arrow image with background along. It will take few more bytes of White color so won't damage your performance that much.
The bug that IE PNG Fix scripts are designed to fix is only a problem for IE6 and lower.. hmm.. possibly IE7? I forget. In any case, IE8 fixed the issue, and IE9 definitely shouldn't have it. These IE versions may still have plenty of bugs, but the old well known PNG background issue isn't one of them.
My guess is that there may be a corruption in the PNG file itself.
My suggestion is to try loading the PNG image into Photoshop (or your favourite graphics app), and re-save it. That may be all you need to do to solve the issue.
Failing that, would you be able to give us a link to the actual PNG file, so we can have a look as well?
I've had this app on app store with no problem until iphone 4 came out.
My home page has an image covering the whole screen.
UIImageView added in interface builder, and image path added in interface builder.
In all phones this image shows up; however, the image does not show up in any iphone 4, and instead the user sees a blank screen like the following:
Anybody knows what's causing this? thanks
.
I only have 1 set of images with
normal resolution
This problem only happens to one of
the images in my application which is
the background for my home page
the graphic file should not be
corrupted because the exact same
image works for all other iphones and
itouches
my image is a jpg file
image size is 480x270, which in
interface builder i make it 563x330 to display only a part of it
I have no outlet to this uiimageview
so it cannot be changed in code
With devices with the new retina display, pixel sizes are different and you have to check for the following, in particular:
Do you provide two alternatives of the image, one at old resolution, one at double resolution (named myimage.png and myimage#2x.png)
If not, does your image scale up well in size with CoreGraphics's algorithms (there are some pathological cases, though you'd have to be quite unlucky)?
Have you checked what happens (at both resolutions) when your UIImageView size changes?
Is it just one image, or all?
Is your graphics file corrupted?
It's hard to tell if it's any of these points, or something else, because you provide so damn little detail, that I stick to generic things. Comment below (or edit your question) if you need more help.
I've got two things to add to FXs thorough answer:
Considering the information you added, I would take a look at your code for setting up that UIImageView. Perhaps you use some sort of detection code or something which wasn't implemented correctly.
Would you mind sharing some code snippets?
According to Apple's documentation, you don't need to provide the ".png" extension as of iOS 4. Perhaps that is causing the problem.
Again, code snippets would help here. Specifically where you deal with loading up your image file.
EDIT:
Try re-saving the image and replacing it. I've occasionally corrupted files in Photoshop. This has to do with file extensions and how Mac OS ignores them, but Photoshop still uses them.
Also, it could have to do with where the image is in your XCode project. Check what Group it is in. Make sure everything is in place and then Clean and Rebuild. Remove the app from the iPhone4 (reboot) and try reinstalling.
I hope this helps.
Good luck!
If this was my code, I'd write a tiny app just to display the image in question. If it still fails it would be easier to get help debugging the problem.
I was asked this question recently in an interview:
Company logo appears partially on
the new build of browser
Eliminated Server down problem, not network issue
Company Logo which is a JPG : maybe the image rendering broken
What else could be wrong?
I could not think of anything else. Please help. Can someone elaborate?
Thanks.
It could be that the browser software is not correctly dealing with objects that are split into multiple packets - acquiring the first packet(s) of a progressively loaded image and not the remaining ones could result in a partially displayed image.
The new build of the browser most probably changed their css rendering engine, adhered to new standards, etc.
What looks right in the old browser might not look right in the new browser simply because the rendering is changed. This is especially true with IE6 to IE7 and IE7 to IE8.
Anyone know of a Flash file (image) uploader that will force a user to resize and/or crop their image BEFORE uploading it? To then upload it as well.
Basically, I don't want my server processing the image resize/crop. I want to specify a target aspect ratio and have the user resize and crop their image to make it fit.
I've seen cropping uploaders before but they all seem to be server side. I saw a Flex one but I'm not sure it's "mandatory" -- Basically if the user just uploads the image without making edits, then I'd like the Flash to scale and fit the image into set dimensions...Leaving it I guess short in one direction to not stretch.
Anything like this out there?
Thanks!
I have a bounty running with a very similar question, be sure to take a peek - there isn't anything there yet that does client side resizing, though.
Also, SWFUpload is said to support it in the new Beta, but the feature is very sparsely documented right now. You would probably have to work on it to get it running the way you want.
http://www.adylevy.com/index.php/2009/07/22/multiple-files-uploader-with-preview-on-client-side/
there was another one called resize before upload but the site went down. though while I'm updating this and we're on the subject -- I don't see why you'd want to use Flash these days for this task. There are plenty of JavaScript options and now we also have Google's Dart (which builds JavaScript).
