April 6, 20187 yr It's not an imgur account thing either. This was a fresh pic uploaded to my own imgur account 5 minutes ago, same shit.
April 6, 20187 yr So, looking at the source, I'm seeing this for Shaggy: #< img src="https://i.imgur.com/tmnLcdq.png" border="0" alt=""#> and this for Surly: #< img src="https://i.imgur.com/ejOejZq.jpg" class="ipsImage" alt="ejOejZq.jpg" #> (inserted # comments to keep it from rendering). Wonder if imgur is catching the ipsImage and thinking this is a blog site, using imgur to host site content vs a forum, and tripping a violation of their ToS?
April 6, 20187 yr If I can't contribute nonsensical gifs and images I'll have nothing to contribute to to the Surl, except maybe nudes...but I haven't been to the gym, in like, forever.
April 6, 20187 yr Still not working. Uploaded image from phone to my Imgur account, posted here on PC using BB Code. Edited April 6, 20187 yr by irockalltherocks

I'm telling y'all that they've disabled hotlinking on Surly, Tapa probably doesn't get recognized with whatever rules they have in place. They did this on TMB a few years ago.

Nothing is "broken" this is something they're intentionally doing.

April 7, 20187 yr I'm using https://imgbox.com for now. They offer an option between family safe and adult content, so our resident pervs won't get in trouble.
April 7, 20187 yr So this is why I keep seeing letters.jpg all over Surly? when this gets fixed will those automatically get turned into pics? This is serious business.

This is serious business. If imgur is really blocking Surly, it won't get fixed. Shame, that is where I get a lot of the pics I post, it's a lot more effort to rehost them.
April 7, 20187 yr Tinypic works. Grab the url and use that. Now that dosn’t solve the problem of using imgur like photobucket and having albums, but worls for a quick one off of general net images that someone may find comes from imgur.
April 7, 20187 yr Quote Thanks for writing. Unfortunately that site has been blocked from hotlinking due to abuse of Imgur's terms of service (http://imgur.com/tos). Imgur's ToS prohibits using Imgur for a Content Delivery Network.We recommend using Imgur's embed unit instead of hotlinking. More information about the embed links can be found here: https://help.imgur.com/hc/en-us/articles/211273743-Embed-Unit.Please let me know if you have any other questions; I'd be happy to help. please use some other sites.
April 8, 20187 yr How the hell does did Shaggy get by.... Edited April 8, 20187 yr by Surly Bevo Times change
April 8, 20187 yr This has to be a new policy right? Shaggy hotlinked a lot of images every day. Edited April 8, 20187 yr by retread

Yeah, but Shaggy predated Imgur, and probably only gradually started linking to it's images. Surly popped up virtually overnight and no doubt caused a spike in traffic, very noticeable.
April 8, 20187 yr That doesn't make any sense. We're not hosting the avatars or any other assets on imgur and afaik they still allow you to upload and hotlink random images.
April 8, 20187 yr They sound like cunts. Maybe Kevin Morgan won control over Imgur in another lawsuit.

April 8, 20187 yr Yep, most of the pics I put in my UnB thread were from imgur because it was a trustworthy site to hotlink nekkid pics. Oh well, I guess I will let that thread sink to the bottom of the urine. Too many clicks to download, then rehost, then insert into posts here.
April 8, 20187 yr <witty&poignantgifthatshowsmyunderstangingbutflippantattitudetowardsthistopic.gif> Maybe we need to put in a call to the Principal....CEO of Imgur??
April 8, 20187 yr Imgbb.com seems to work ok. Definitely going to miss being able to use the Imgur app though.
April 8, 20187 yr I'm a technological moron, but is there any kind of fancy redirecting or mirroring voodoo that could save the day? Or "using Imgur's embed unit rather than hotlinking" (whatever the fuck that means, but it was in their reply to our request for clemency), even if that means we don't have some of the fancy auto formatting or whatever, and have to go back to how we used to do things in the old country?
April 8, 20187 yr I don't use imgur to post pics (I either use tinypic or my flickr/google accounts) but I have noticed that if you remove the "i." from the imgur url you can see the image. I'm not sure if this would work as a workaround to posting or not but you could try it. For example, I right click on the broken image in Diablo's post above, and I see "https://i.imgur.com/S7OsvvS.jpg". I can't see shit. But if I just look at "https://imgur.com/S70svvS.jpg" I can see the images. Did this work?
April 8, 20187 yr okeedokey. imgbox works for pics you load from your machine. i haven't figured out how to dragdrop from the intertrons. but it only requires a couple of extra clicks over imgur.
April 8, 20187 yr Tinypic works here and extremely easy to upload pics or from url http://tinypic.com/
