Ever had problems / bugs related to images not loading?

Hi,
In your games, have you ever had bug reports from players who don't see some elements of the game, as if some images couldn't be downloaded?
In Castles of Burgundy, there are a few players who couldn't see the dice in their first game or first two games, then they saw them, and never had this problem again. It was reported once or twice with other images as well (sometimes several images for the same player).
To me, it looks like a downloading problem that has nothing to do with my code (no dontPreloadImages() for these images), but I'd like to know if this happens in other games as well.
Thanks

Yep, happened a lot on Welcome To and Kingdom Builder, never figured out the issue.

On Discord there was one case where the image was blocked by an ad blocker because of the naming (AD.png).
Users could test but deactivating the ad blocker. If it is the case, you would have to rename your image.

I get this bug report regularly for Lucky Numbers. Nothing you can do really.
But it happened to me once as well. Can't remember the name of the game, but I checked the CSS in the dev console and opened the image file, no problem here. After refreshing the page, everything looked just fine.

In the game Tablut. It's about >75% chance that the stone images are not displayed, just the king. Sometime 3 page refreshes before I get to see the stones. I don't think other people have this issue.
Just watched the example game replay on the game page - the stones aren't there.

JS Error:

There was a problem like this in Stone Age, according to the developer probably related to the right to left writing in hebrew:

Also Azul had this issue, you might ask thoun
https://boardgamearena.com/player?id=86175279 how he solved it.
In both games the bug could be seen in the replay, so F5 didn't help.
