Media Image Not Loading Into Pixlr (localhost)

I have a similar issue to: http://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/pixlr/bug-reports/16959-Media-Image-Not-Loading-Into-Pixlr where the images are not loading on Pixlr end.

Except I'm running umbraco 4.7.0 on my localhost. Do the images need to be accessible to Pixlr over the internet or should Pixlr be able to access images that are from my local/development environments?

Hi Hamish,

Try opening the crossdomain.xml file and replace the two places where it says "pixlr.com" with "*" so it looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.adobe.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">
<cross-domain-policy>
    <allow-access-from domain="*" />
    <site-control permitted-cross-domain-policies="master-only"/>
    <allow-http-request-headers-from domain="*" headers="*" secure="true"/>
</cross-domain-policy>

Thanks - that worked!

Should that be updated back to pixlr.com once on the production server?

Ok - just encountered another issue. After editing the image in Pixlr and try to save it back to umbraco, it seems to stall. Pixlr states "Working please wait" and nothing much else happens after hitting save.

I noticed a similar bug: http://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/pixlr/bug-reports/7570-Advanced-Pixlr-doesn't-save-back-to-Umbraco which I think is the same issue but I'm unsure what is meant by credentials and how to edit them?

Hi Hamish,

I am able to save back to Umbraco just fine after editing the crossdomain.xml file. You could try to change "permitted-cross-domain-policies" from "master-only" to "all", but it's a stab in the dark.

And yes its important to change the crossdomain.xml file back to the original one, when going online. You are giving web clients persmission to handle crossdomain data and that should be limited to the once you trust. In this case Pixlr.com

Just realised I hadn't updated
```
<allow-http-request-headers-from domain="*" headers="*" secure="true"/>
```
only updated
```
<allow-access-from domain="*" />
```
