forbidden 403 on image URLS

Looks like when the HTTP request header referrer is anything other than http://4chan.org, I get this issue. Ive simply added the below to the HTML page and its fixed the problem:

<meta name="referrer" content="no-referrer"/>

Once your Angular app is loaded, you can also use Firefox Developer Console (Network Tab) modify image request (ie 403) and remove referrer header to test.

Remove http referer
