Same problem here. There is some suggestion on other forums that this might be connected with the British Internet Watch Foundation. If they have blacklisted these sites (secretly, hence the error message) they would be automatically blocked by BT. Don't know if this is true or just internet speculation.

I had same problem uploading to Imagevenue last night. (I'm on BT too)
Switched to Pimpandhost and that worked just fine.
I also notice today that loads of pictures uploaded ages ago via Imagevenue are not now displaying.

Seems to be ok now, on BT and had probs yesterday and earlier today.

BT are claiming that it (or was) a complex routing issue. Hmmm. Perhaps it was

Imagebam is wonky again... haven't been able to view photos since I got home tonight. No photos show; only the BB and HTML codes. Hopefully it will work again soon?

Update: AdBlock Plus was the culprit this time...

OK, after a six-week holiday in Australia I'm back... I've been trying to upload photos with ImageVenue (what I've always used since joining the forum) and it doesn't seem to be working... The photos upload, but then it just freezes...

Been going on since Wednesday and I'm wondering if anyone else has been having the same problems... I've been using Firefox and IE both, and it's doing it on both web browsers with the exact same results.

I really don't want to use a different image host because ImageVenue has been really good for me in the past and I don't want to change if I don't have to...

Any advice?

Hmm....BT seems to be playing up again not loading certain image sites.

Also seem to be suffering with thumbnails not showing up in posts (imagevenue in particular). It has only been the last week or so. If the thumbnail is there, the image usually loads, however.

I'm using plusnet at the moment (owned by BT) and frankly my mobile service is better.
