I'm attempting to upload a Forum Image to the right of my posts but it keeps saying 'oh no, this isnt a valid image!'?

I have it uploaded to Imgur. Its 325 x 325px. Its transparent. I have tried when it was a hidden post and when it's public and neither made a difference.

Is there something Im missing or doing wrong? :C

Here is the link and image I'm attempting to use:

Just link: https://imgur.com/gOLqkSG

(even the above is saying its invalid hmmm..)

The problem is the link you're using, it's not a direct image link. You can open the image in a new tab by right clicking on it and selecting that option. Or if you're in the imgur app by clicking on it directly. The link should end in the image format .png or .jpeg https://i.imgur.com/gOLqkSG.png

What's it say when you try to add it to your forum image? It can take a little while to show up after you've added it.

It gives me an error message saying ' Oh No!' 'Oh no, that isn't a valid image!'

Even though I'm now using the direct image link like you suggested above ;w; I'm also selecting the alignment right option for the 325 x 325px since that's the canvas sized I used.

I tested it out and wasn't able to get it work either so I'm not sure unfortunately. Maybe someone else knows .

IMGUR has disabled certain forms of hotlinking, so it's my understanding that it can't be used for forum images. You'll unfortunately need a different image host for forumtext images.

It's all good, thank you anyways ;w; !!

I did go on the hunt and found ImageShack seems to work, but I'm unsure about it needing a monthly sub or not...but I'll figure that out on my own, just wanted to let you know too just in case !! C:

(also I have updated my sig to not have the headshot in it but it hasn't updated yet on my end, so hopefully it will soon )

OMG thank you for the suggestion !! I'll look into that pronto

I was searching all over for a free site to use but every one I kept finding was either a free trial with a monthly sub or (in dropbox's case) would be free and not work on the forums ;w; So THANK YOU SO SO much aaaa
