Certain Images on Forum
« on: July 08, 2017, 03:08:46 am »
So the problem I'm having here is that some images on the forum aren't showing up. Some images are showing up, and they look fine, but the random few that don't are just the 'missing image'-looking symbol with a tiny text document shaped photo. It's not working for my own signature, and I've tried using all kinds of different websites (TinyPic, Imgur, Photobucket, etc.) and none of them are working. I've tried looking on other threads to see if this problem I have got solved, but all of the answers were either not specific at all or were simple, quick fixes that didn't change how some images didn't show up. I tried waiting to see if something like TinyPic was down and that's why it wasn't showing up, but it's just this one forum. The same photos work fine on other forums I have used, too. If anyone could either help me here or send me to a thread that actually answers this, I would be so grateful! Thank you!

Perhaps reply to this with an image uploaded from Imgur and we might be able to see your image. Sometimes the missing image can come from your end. Meaning, you might not be seeing it but the rest of the userbase might see it. I've had it happen to me before ^^
You could temporarily try a different browser to see if the images show up or clear your current browser's cache and cookies.

Note the image url needs to end in the file extension. Either .png or .jpg

Also, any and all Tinypic image urls will not work on the site as we had it blocked due to having problems with it. Imgur is my highly recommended image host ^^

Thank you so much! Actually, using a different browser works wonders! Ah, I had no idea that TinyPic didn't work, and that was probably the forefront of my difficulties!
