For the second time today images in Firefox have disappeared and, as I was Sincing two computers at the time, now they BOTH have the same problem.
Earlier today, the images on Firefox completely disappeared. Nothing I did fixed this issue; not restarting in Safe Mode, not disabling individual add-ons, nothing. No other browser was affected. After a little over an hour of this, the images suddenly came back with no changes from me. A little less than an hour ago, the same issue started happening, this time, though, I was using Sinc to transfer data to another computer and now both of them cannot display images in Firefox. Please fix this.

Make sure that you do not block (third-party) images, the permissions.default.image pref on the about:config page should be 1.
Make sure that you haven't enabled a High Contrast theme in the Windows/Mac Accessibility settings.
Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own colors.
- Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Colors : [X] "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above"
Note that these settings affect background images.

There are extensions like Adblock Plus (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images and other content.

Thanks for the reply. I went to the config:image page and discovered the default.image.pref was set to 0, so I changed it to 1. I can't tell if it's had any effect yet, however, because - just like the first time it happened - the issue corrected itself about a half hour after I sent the message. Here's hoping the change prevents this from happening again.
0 (zero) is not a valid value for that pref (1-3), so the behavior in such a case is not predictable (I haven't checked the Firefox source code to see what it defaults to).
