If you go to the get.php file directly with the adoptable id can you see the images or do you get the "The image cannot be displayed, because it contains errors." message?

no, than it looks like that

Have you tried re-saving the images in a graphics program and re-uploading them?

@ BMR

I can see the pics directly on the page, but not in the forum :(

:D look: it works

now I uploaded them again... but nothing happens

:( :( :(

I create at ADM a new creature, with new folder, but that doesn't work too..

Ok, that is odd. By chance, does your host force ads on your account?

[Blackmagic]

That probably is the reason then. The get.php page is supposed to trick your browser into thinking what's coming out is an image file. Your host sees the file as a PHP file so I bet they force the ads on that page. Thus, the browser is expecting an image but gets an image plus the html ad code and doesn't know what to do with it, so it does really nothing.

That's probably what's happening. See if you can get ads disabled, even just for that one file.

I've experienced this problem before. Make sure that your web server is not on any type of safe mode, extra safety enabled, etc... My Dreamhost Private server gave me exactly the same errors before. As for not displaying on forums, it's a good chance that it's the type of forum you're trying to place it on. By default, Invision Power Board v2.5.x and above enable an extra layer of web security which must be disabled in order to display dynamic images. (i.e. the get.php?id=### instead of a ###.png or ###.gif) I'm not sure if Vbulliten does this as well, but it might. However, free alternatives, the BB series, do work just fine with these images by default if the server has no extra layers of security. Check those two things, and let me know if problems persist. =D
