I can see it on two different machines. Even my cell phone. Something must be blocking your access to the pic server. Are you on a computer at work or anything?

I would bet the tubes are either not hooked up properly or they're clogged. Now, I will tell you an unusual story about those tubes. A few years ago I was jacking my car up in the middle of January or so. The car had not run since the cold weather started in November. As I got one side of the car nicely jacked, so the car was at a good angle, I heard the distinct sound of what seemed like a cup full of fluid splatter on the ground -- just like as if you poured a cup of coffee on the floor. I went over to investigate and there was a nice puddle of gasoline under the vent tubes, maybe a quarter cup. The tank was maybe half full. I cleaned up the gas, blew out all the lines, couldn't figure out how it happened, and it's never happened again.

Bugs love to find small areas in which to lay their eggs or build their nests.....Once a year I blow mine out, you do not need a lot of air pressure, just enough to make certain they are not clogged with debris.
