My images don't load on mobile

My images don't load on mobile when I visit my website that uses dropbox direct photo links. The desktop site works fine.

    Hi all, 

     

    As you may have seen, this issue is now resolved and a fix was rolled out earlier this week 🎉

Same here. Safari from a desktop, laptop, iPhone all running current versions, even an older Mac running Yosemite and Safari 11 will not load hosted photos from several online forums that I've tried since around March 1st. Images hosted from other sites will load ok, just the Dropbox images are failing. 

 

Links copied and pasted directly to Safari will open just fine:

Firefox and Chrome are working fine.

    I too cannot see png images linked to dropBox locations on Safari or iOS.  Is there a solution?  I am eager to learn of it.

      I would also note that FireFox on iOS will not show the images.
