Are there any plans to change the way images are linked in the daily newsletter? I use Outlook.com as my main e-mail interface and the images never show through that. If I view in an e-mail client they seem to work fine. I seem to remember reading that this could be caused by an http / https mismatch for the links. Am I the only one seeing this behavior?

Hmmm, I'll have someone check, but I think this is a client issue. The client determines if content outside the email (linked images) are pulled down.
Have you added us as a Safe Sender in Outlook?

Could be, but this is outlook.com, not the Outlook desktop client. Mail clients and apps seem to work, but not the site. Verified with and without an adblocker enabled. I just checked with today's newsletter - all of the images next to the articles show with the little X icon on outlook.com, but display fine in the mail app. (same pc)

K, I'll ask someone to look at this.

Hi Peter,
Can you make sure sqlservercentral.com is added as a safe sender? Outlook.com has a tendency to timeout image downloads quite quickly for non-trusted (per-user) domains.
If that doesn't help, can you send a screengrab of exactly what you're seeing to webmaster@sqlservercentral.com?

Image sent, but I'm not sure how to set "safe sender" in the outlook.com web client - either that or I've already done it. Also noted that Red-Gate's ad images on the side showed up today, but the Amazon book image did not. The Amazon image had the same issue as the images next to the articles.
