Is there a reason why clicking on a post image will immediately cause it to download? This is making me nervous to click on anything.

That's the server serving it wrong.

Hey thanks for the response. Just so I understand because I'm new to this...do you think it's more of a particular instance/server issue not associated with Liftoff?

In my experience it happens when a web server is misconfigured. Sometimes it's desirable behavior, sometimes not.
