You are getting this because Thickbox decides if your link is an image or not based on the file extension. If all your images are from yimg, you can fix this with a bit of a hack.
Go into thickbox.js, find the function tb_show(), and these lines: var urlString = /\.jpg|\.jpeg|\.png|\.gif|\.bmp/g; var urlType = baseURL.toLowerCase().match(urlString); if(urlType == '.jpg' || urlType == '.jpeg' || urlType == '.png' || urlType == '.gif' || urlType == '.bmp'){//code to show images Just add a test to find a unique part of your URL string, such as var urlString = /\.jpg|\.jpeg|\.png|\.gif|\.bmp|\.yimg/g; var urlType = baseURL.toLowerCase().match(urlString); if(urlType == '.jpg' || urlType == '.jpeg' || urlType == '.png' || urlType == '.gif' || urlType == '.bmp' || urlType == '.yimg'){//code to show images Maybe Thickbox will add support for custom extensions down the line.
