Why don't my Imgur uploads appear anymore?

I'm uploading and posting them the same way as always, but I can't see them in preview. Does this happen to anyone else?

I think your best bet is to use postimages.org. See sticky.

If you're using the Imgur app (which is terrible) then you need to copy the link into a browser. Then open the image in a new tab and copy and paste that url in the img box.

I looked at one of your posts, and it shows like this:

I believe the issue is that the Imgur links you used point to their own proprietary page, not the image file itself, and thus it's not getting resolved properly.

If you prefer that method and feel more comfortable with it, you can simply copy/paste/insert the Imgur link that has ".jpeg" at the end, and it will show, like this (one of your original test images):

Trying what Chicken suggested above and using the Direct link version on Postimages accomplishes the same thing, if you'd rather go that route (it's been down a lot for me lately though):

• Go to Postimages.

• On desktop, drag an image onto that page — on mobile, click Choose images and find it.

• Once it uploads, look for the link that says Direct link, and press the blue file icon next to that to copy that link to your clipboard.

• Back here in the forum, press the img markup button, and paste that copied link into the pop-up box, then click OK or Submit.

• Click on Preview to see your image.

------------------------

This is a pretty common error, BTW, and I've accidentally done it myself when trying to link an image from one of those other sites. Once you've done this a few times though and gotten the hang of it, it'll be relatively straightforward from then on.
