Images won't load, getting error 403 (and 404)

[h78509]

Here is my forum: http://elementsforum.co.cc/

The problem is that none of the images on the front page load, and all I see is text as links.

If I right-click where the image should be on choose "View Image", I get this:

"Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /Themes/default/images/smflogo.png on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."


Funny thing is that if I then refresh that page, the image will show up. It's like if I go to the image directly it's ok, but if I try to get to the images inside the forums, it won't work.

For example here is the logo of our forum. http://elementsforum.co.cc/Themes/default/images/smflogo.png . As you can see it loads up nicely. But it won't load when you are inside the forum.

I didn't do anything weird with the forum. I didn't touch permissions or anything like that. It just suddenly stopped working.

I'm using InMotion hosting and this is the same exact problem I had with my previous hosting provider (GoDaddy) so I don't think hosting is the problem, it has to be software related.

Any ideas?



I fixed this. I had a .htaccess file that caused the problem.
