    Wish I could help you out, but I'm running Vista, not Windows 7, and I have no idea what to tell you. But hang in there, there are some really computer-savvy folks here who I'm sure will be able to assist. Good luck.

    I don't know the first thing about Windows 7, sorry, but I'm thinking this would be a browser setting rather than an operating system setting. You can see pictures on your desktop, right?

    What about other websites, can you see pictures on them?

    I use Vista, and was able to get the free upgrade through Dell. Tried to load it in, computer crashed. Got it fixed, tried to load again, crashed again and had to take it to Geek Squad to get it fixed. Sticking with Vista.....

    The browser has a setting to show images. I doubt it's the operating system's fault. I use Google Chrome so only know those settings. Usually it's under the Tool tab.

    Bellaboo and I are thinking alike.
    Internet Explorer has it under tools
    Internet Options
    Advanced
    Scroll down to MultiMedia, and check the box that says "show pictures"
