Can anybody see these? On my screen, they don't come up; just keeps spooling. Same thing happened on my computer at work.

I think they're HTML5, not Flash.
My browser only runs Flash when I give it permission.

But yes the pictures come up fine.

Any suggestions how to get the pictures to come up? I never had this problem in the past with the flash sales.

Well, it's not Flash. It's HTML5.
Is your browser an older version?
Have you tried different web browsers?

When I load up the page, there's about a half second where the pictures have that circle going round, then they display.

If you're using a browser add-on that blocks scripting, like NoScript, you have to configure it to allow gog.com to run scripts or you'll see the circle going round instead of the pictures.

I don't know why you'd suddenly be getting the problem when you didn't have it before though -- unless your ISP is doing something it shouldn't.

I usually use IE11. I don't use browser add-ons (that I'm aware of anyway). I don't think it's my ISP. Different ISP at work did the same thing.

I just tried Firefox and the pictures came up. I really prefer Internet Explorer though.

Yes, I guess to see the flash sales I'll have to use Firefox. Just wonder why IE doesn't work for that anymore. Maybe someday I'll get used to Firefox if I'm forced to use it.

Thanks Jenny and Marian.
