How do you post pictures on the forum? - Portus - 2012-01-23

I don't know why I'm having problems, it seems like a really basic thing, what am I missing?!

I can post the link just fine but this empty box comes up when I put it in image tags

It's because Gyazo doesn't support file extensions at the end of a URL, therefore the forum treats it as a malicious file and doesn't display the image. You'll find that ImageShack or Imgur work just fine. In reality with Gyazo, you're trying to tell the forum to treat a webpage as an image, and it won't work.

Here's the image URL from that link:

Haha seems so obvious now, right click and copy url cuz the one I was posting isn't actually the picture? Tongue

Thank you@

iirc, gyazo images are deleted if they exceed the bandwith or receive too many views, so you have to provide a link to the actual site instead of displaying the actual image. That leads to the prolem that gyazo has probably one of the worst websites in existence. On slower computers, it can take several minutes to load, and it's covered in ads. This is why I suggest using imgur or tinypic.

Yeah i agree with gyazo being one of the worst. Even on my amazing internet the site doesnt load.
