Going on several Gawker Media sites (eg: lifehacker.com, gizmodo.com), pictures

both sites are crap. None of which explains chomp...

I went to <http://gizmodo.com/> and had no problem seeing the thumbnail
photos and the full-size photos. However, that require me to change my
image preference from "Only load images that come from the originating
server" to "Load all images".
That's it.
I've had a chance to try lifehacker on different platforms. The site renders in
IE
(on separate machines, I didn't play with settings) visibly the same as it does
under
iOS. FF 20 x64 in Linux renders it "browser fashion" with visible errors (a
truncated
left column), while SM 2.24 in Linux with "all pictures" enabled renders it
what I'll
presume to presume is perfectly. Versatile websites, infinitely variable! Chomp
will
remain a mystery.
One final gasp: "Load all images" turns out NOT to work on the original machine
referenced in the user agent string in my original post.
So the Gawker websites display more or less differently on EVERY platform tried. And
chomp is still a mystery. To heck with 'em.
