Alpenwolf Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 When adding an image to a post on the forums, one needs to type: [/img] Between the ][ in the middle the url of that image is added. So obviousley the image needs to be uploaded first, for example here: https://imgur.com/upload Now, for some reason it ain't working for me. First I included "http://" to the inserted url, then I took it away -> same result. Can anyone help me out, please?

Rudel_chw Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Let’s see ... Imgur has different options when generating the image link ... use the one that says "direct link" :) For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600X - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia GTX1070ti - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar - Oculus Rift CV1 Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudel_chw Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Can't find an option that says "direct link". Sorry, don't know why you can't see it .. my imgur allows several ways to get the image link, one of those is direct link. It works for me.

razo+r Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Maybe because you're registered and have an imgur account? I don't have an account and linking images like rudel did works for me too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpenwolf Posted July 31, 2018 Author Share Posted July 31, 2018 For the love of God... Why on earth isn't it working for me! EDIT: Can you please make a screen shot of what you see on the imgur page including that option?
