Whether I am on steam the application or the website, I cannot see the any of my friends profile pics including mine. Even on a site like UGC where it normally shows players profile pics it is blank. My google chrome shows that it is still connecting at the bottom but never actually loads any pictures.

Got this of steam forums

Go to:
C:/Windows/System32/Drivers/etc

Edit the file called host (open it in notepad)
Find this set of text in the file:
127.0.0.1 media.steampowered.com
::1 media.steampowered.com
DELETE THAT!

Then save and try again

However there is no text written:
127.0.0.1 media.steampowered.com
::1 media.steampowered.com

Instead it is written:
127.0.0.1 localhost
::1 localhost

see if you can see avatars with another device, like your phone, connected to the same network as your pc, if the problem persists then it means your router is blocking them somehow. if the problem only happens on your pc then you might have your firewall poorly configured.

hoolisee if you can see avatars with another device, like your phone, connected to the same network as your pc, if the problem persists then it means your router is blocking them somehow. if the problem only happens on your pc then you might have your firewall poorly configured.

Thanks for the help!
I restarted my modem and its fixed :)

I'm not sure why steam would be blocked randomly but Thanks for everyone's input :)
