Accidentally Blocked Picture Server

I accidentally blocked
http://i41.tinypic.com by blocking one of their pictures once by mistake
I cant find anywhere to unblock it now. As soon as i enter a page with a picture coming from i41 its simply missing so i cant give it permission.
And i cant whitelist the server.
Also trying to enter i41 takes me to the main tinypic homepage which has been given full permission to function.
How can i unblock i41? (The other tinypic servers works fine)

This is not a NoScript option, but a Firefox built-in.
Tools|Options|Content|Load images automatically|Exceptions

Or something done by Adblock Plus. It has a context menu selection for blocking images.

There's no right-click menu from NoScript to block images.
Are you sure you didn't select "Block images from somesite.com"? If that's the case (and it's likely), answer is
this one.

It is true that when you right click on a picture, the NoScript menu is part of the long menu that pops up; however, what you have misunderstood is that even in that case, NoScript only blocks the domain and that can be easily undone using the NoScript GUI, it will not have anything to do with that image or image server. Now, if the image is generated and served using a script, such as: xyz.com/random_pic, then yes, if you block xyz.com, then your picture won't show.
However, you are making it far too difficult to help you. Because, its either 1) under the Fx built-in images exception (Tools|Options) go there and check, 2) you have adblock and something is blocked by rule or by you (which you said you don't have), or 3) you blocked the DOMAIN (not the pictures) using NoScript which you can go to NoScript menus on the statusbar and toolbar, or via the GUI under options, to go ahead and UN-whitelist it. So what's the problem?
