Are there problems with picture linking at the moment?

I've noticed that recently every blog I go to that has had a picture linked into it, the picture doesn't appear to show up.  Instead, a small box with a red x in the middle shows up. 

At first I thought it was the writer referencing their pictures to their local hard drive, but checking the page-properties of the links they are indeed external, and work when entered directly.  Once you go back to the blog after doing that the picture appears to work fine, but not before!

Then I checked my own machine, just to make sure there were no setting errors this end, but nope - everything's fine.

What gives?  Any problems you're aware of or is this just a hiccup?
