Broken preview on website
Closed this issue · 6 comments
Many preview images (such as Consolas, FiraFlott, Hack and more) on the website are broken. Hope they will get fixed.
I think I found the issue. Is Consolas working for you now?
Yes I believe so, especially after I cleared browser cache. However sometimes the images are still missing, and I would need to reload the page to make it work.
I have one question: why won't you directly use woff2 to display the actual font on the webpage, or at least provide that option?
BTW, when I said it's working earlier, I meant on my mobile device. It's still not working on my desktop as for now.
Edit: Now it works on desktop too after a whole day.
Should be all set. Thanks for pointing it out. I use images just so, theoretically, this site lasts longer. No real dependency on a certain technology. But an even bigger reason is being able to include paid fonts without maintaining a license.
As of now, for example Hasklig is still not working. The following address
https://res.cloudinary.com/css-tricks/image/fetch/w_1200,q_auto,f_auto/https://coding-fonts.css-tricks.com/screenshots/anonymous-pro/html-dark.png
returns 404 with the error header:

Now accessing https://coding-fonts.css-tricks.com/screenshots/hasklig/css-dark.png directly only results in HTML content of the website (not by http redirection, but by directly return the HTML) even with referer header.
Update:
Oh, now it works after 1 second. Not sure why. I'll keep observing. Maybe the CDN takes a while to fully sync?
