Referrer not sent on inner image pages

@Rodolfo I brought this issue up in a previous thread but it was marked as solved but it wasn't. The site name is clumsythumbs.com

I got this from the maxcdn support team, and because of this I cant enable hotlink protection because the the inner pages return page can't be found. However, the explore images still show. Please help.

"Here's the thing: You make a HTTP HEAD request to maxCDN before you render the HTML. This HEAD asking for the image fails because it doesn't contain the HTTP referrer header and subsequently the HTML is not delivered from your origin server. Instead, your origin server returns a 404.

We could verify that. Here's a sample request from your origin server before you generate the HTML. It does not contain a referrer.

Please change this logic on your origin server so that the HTML will always be returned. "
 
Demo uses MaxCDN and I don't have issues. Most likely your MaxCDN settings or server settings is causing this problem, most likely you have a referrer whitelist in MaxCDN.

I've noticed that this happens when you use external storage + CDN + whitelist referrers. I've tweaked the code to fix this issue. The patch will be available in v3.6.4
 
Ok, this is very very strange. I'm using Akamai as my cdn provider. As a test I have the same setup as I did with keyCDN however, on clumsythumbs it's doing the same thing as it did before, it's not showing the inner page images. Which doesnt make an sense. clumsythumbs.com, 3.6.4
