I made a post recently with a picture that blew out the forum table which is totally my bad but it made my signature and forum image be removed. I'm trying to put the forum image back in but it is saying it isn't valid. I'm trying to put it to the right and the image is 300x300px and is a png I'm not sure what the problem is I'll just link to the image instead of putting it in forum image

Also it appears as if my signature is still messed up even though the forum image is blank and the only thing I have in my signature is my tree?

I'd be filing a ticket to discuss it with a UA.

But it's reading as 300px for me in Photoshop, Photopea, and Irfanview, which is a decades' old graphic viewer (not unlike the built in gallery or whatever but allows for reading off exact dimensions.) I'm also trained as a graphic designer, it's 300px. Perhaps the broken dimension reader? Or the combination of the two threw it?

Have you happened to try hosting the image somewhere other than imgur and seeing if it works then? If I'm remembering correctly, images hosted on imgur always cause problems when attempting to use them as a forum image (I seem to remember reading somewhere that it has something to do with imgur not allowing hotlinking or something like that).

Well, we've taken one step in the right direction, at least! When I tried to open the image in a new tab, I got a message about a token validation failure? Which led me to do a little digging and I think I found the right image on dA (I'm not a creep, I promise! Just did a quick search for the username listed in the URL then looked for the name of the work in the gallery!); it looks like part of the URL is getting cut off. I'd guess there must be a character limit and the link is just too long to fit.

No worries lol, it's all my art and everything I was able to find a source, postimg, that works

man was it work trying to find a good alternative. Ended up going to a reddit post since everything from websites saying the best alternative needed sign ups and approvals and was bombarded with ads and all sorts of nonsense!
