Some pictures are not visible when viewing threads with Chrome

Hi everybody,
Just wondering if it's something on my end or everyone has the same issue. My default browser is Google Chrome and often I cannot see the picture from the thread (if I figure that the question contains the picture). I can see it with Edge, though, but it's inconvenient to open different browser.
This in an example
Thanks in advance.

Got another one which is not showing for me again
Also, I just re-tried the original link and it's again not showing picture even though when I tried it last time right after upgrading it did show.

It is somewhat unreliable and I cannot figure out a pattern. I right clicked on my last link and used 'Incognito window' and the picture showed. I'm going to try in a new window again (but not incognito) and see.
UPDATE. Not using incognito mode didn't show the picture.

Some browsers such as Firefox see the "social.technet.microsoft.com" and "social.msdn.microsoft.com" as same origin, but not for Chrome.
See the site from technet to show the uploaded image:
Perheps changing the upload image function to store the image URL with placeholder path, then when the content is loaded in any of the forums, the placeholder would be replaced with value of the "Host" header.
EDIT: Or better, modify the "upload image" code so it will just insert image tag with relative path instead, since the "/Forums/getfile" path is on the same server.

From technet I do see the picture correctly in Chrome. Most likely you figured out the reason, but will the engineers do that?
Thanks again.

I've noticed several times that the picture is missing. However, lately I stopped trying to open such threads in another browser.
