BUG? - Cant Post Pictures or Links to Images?

[Lord Zeoinx]

So I dont know why, but every time I tried linking, or even uploading an image to the forum it said "upload error" and the link didnt work either, i thought maybe it didnt show up in the preview, but that wasnt the case, any advice would be helpful

What source were you trying to link from? If you can provide an un-embedded link to the image I can nose around with it. As for the file upload, it might be a file type and/or size issue, knowing image size and file type would help.

Dropbox link : https://www.dropbox.com/s/wu2fgbtv4q4hxnb/Skyforge.PNG?dl=0

Same Image format, and size.

I'm pretty sure the problem is that it is coming from Dropbox. Try putting it on Imgur or Puush and see if it will embed.

What about the upload to the forums directly issue?

Currently playing around with that at the moment, will provide clarification as soon as I can.

Are you by chance using Firefox or Waterfox?

Firefox

On your Preferences, under Options, try turning OFF the Flash-based image loader. Then click the Save button, and refresh the pages/tabs where you are trying to do this. See if that doesn't help. Worked for me in Firefox.

Try uploading the image to IMGUR and use the link that it gives you. Make sure it ends in a PNG format or else it won't work.

You could also save the image to your desktop and upload it to the website.

Yea, that did it. Weird that It didnt work with the Flash based, considering i have it fully updated. You know, come to think of it, I think this happened before to me actually.
