Boatshed website...is something wrong, there? I can't see their pictures.

Boatshed always seems to me a pretty unbeatable way of accessing pictures of almost every corner of every type of boat, new and old.

Today I tried to look at a yacht and I was instructed to log in. I logged in as I always do (in spite of the fact I always click the "remember me" box, which apparently doesn't work) and immediately the system took me back to the page with the thumbnail pics on...

...but as soon as I clicked the photo I wanted to enlarge, I was once again instructed to log in. Again and again.

Anybody else having the same problem?
 
That's odd. It's always worked perfectly for me before...not today. Every time I click on a pic, I'm asked to log in...even when I already have. :(
 
Just done that, thanks. Then I tried Boatshed again, and once again, I can't look at pictures. Very strange.

I get the feeling the site itself isn't recognising me, even though I've just logged in. And having logged in again, it's as if I haven't bothered to. :(
 
Weird - I just found it's okay if I access Boatshed on Chrome. No good at all on Internet Explorer. Evidently it's my problem, anyway.
 
Apologies, I should have mentioned that I'm using Chrome. I would try it on IE for you, but I don't think I could remember my password to try it!
 
I was rejected by yahoo, but service returned after installing updates. Could it be that your browser needs a security update?
 
Thanks, but I think it's possible I never attempted to access Boatshed with Internet Explorer before...so I ought to go back to just using Chrome. IE7 has given me trouble before.
 
There is your problem - IE7 is obsolete - many modern websites will not be designed to work on such outdated software. It is also full of security holes. Do yourself a favour and either delete or update it.
 
Thanks, I will. I'm in serious trouble whenever I take SWMBO's advice regarding the computer...she's a few steps ahead of me, but not far enough to be a good guide!
