I guess it has more with the image hosting service used to put the image online, than with the very forum code. But I have no proofs for that. I neve noticed on my images (hosted on Imgur)

Some image hosting sites have an expiry duration for images if the user chooses it, such as Imgbb

Something with the forums code is starting to disable images after a period of time. Does anyone know why this happens to some images and not others?

Code:
 [url][img link here [/img][/url] 
You left out a bracket close for the opening img tag. Most likely an oversight, but it would mess up the code and it would not display the image.

Code:
 [url][img] link here [/img][/url]

95% of the people that responded to this question have given you the answer you need to upload image.
But if you still don't get it right, kindly Copy someone post with image and then edit it to upload your image.
Example; Go on bitcointalk, check someone post and click Quote to copy the HTML Code of the person. From there you will see the link to the users image, Delete the original link of the person by inserting your. When done copy the edited version to paste on your dashboard to upload.
That's how I learnt how to started posting image too

I think that's more confusing task because if you are going to edit someone's else image tags and inserting your link there then chances of mistake are more and you will see invalid image proxy code so the best solution is to follow the instructions above to upload the image on any image hosting site and simply copy the BBCode in your post.

If you want to make image clickable then embed it like this :

Code:
 [url][img link here [/img][/url] 

That's it and your image will be visible to others as well you on forum if you are not newbie on the forum.

Thank you, I just ended up using imgbb instead of imgur and that worked

Thanks for this thread, finally I could upload my first picture. In the beginning, I used Imgur too and it failed, I tried to use imgbb and postimage too and it also failed cause I pasted the link between
Code:
[img] and [/img]

I tried each way that's been mentioned here, however, it's failed (btw I used a mobile phone, I changed the mode to desktop mode, and still failed). Apparently, when I upload it to imgbb and check it again meticulously, I found that we can copy-paste the BBCode full linked directly to the forum without clicking on BBCode provided by the Forum first.

Herewith I attach the picture too :


and it works perfectly

Use a computer or change your phone broswer to a computer version. It does not work on mobile version
Visit https://imgur.com
Just because of this reason (having to switch to desktop version on mobile phone as I often write forum posts using mobile phone) I prefer https://postimages.org/ where it works normally, without need to switch. Another one where you don't have to switch anything is https://imgbb.com/. For some reason majority of people still prefer imgur, don't know why really.

Imgur has some high quality images which imgbb somewhat falls short of.

And the latter tends to render them smaller after uploading them.

If you use android, you can use this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.superyao.tuchuang - share from gallery and copy bbcode link.
Really this method of your's is good, to upload images, many people have their own way of uploading images, using this link https://imgbb.com/ also  it will direct you on what to do.
I will stick on what can be used online in the web, instead of installing any software on your device, either its safe worst if not. As far as i know, any free image hosting available have this feature.

The image hosting site like imgbb or imgur are free of cost then why go through these apps but yes you can use them to make some image adjustment if they come along with it as other members have previously discussed about such apps that can help you in image posting on the forum but for me imgbb is ok to work with and post images here.

Well, it's for sake of convienience, it uploads to imgur and is free app.

Also, in case you are taking the image from an external source I suggest you to combine the [ img ] tag With the [ url ] tag to make the image linkable:


Code:
[url=https://twitter.com/saylor/status/1488498422495817728?s=20&t=ZVTHoEGTeuOJ02w6EVUD-Q][img width=500]https://i.imgur.com/GjHpEGG.jpg[/img][/url]

If you take the link for the BBCode from any image uploading site like imgbb then it's already attached with [url] embedded in the link and then you can remove it or keep it to make the image link clickable that will redirect you to the particular image hosting site where you have uploaded the image.

But you can make readjustmemts in the image size of height and width according to your preference but if the size is small you could make it clickable otherwise it's completely fine to avoid the link.

If you use android, you can use this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.superyao.tuchuang - share from gallery and copy bbcode link.

Guideline on posting images (with size adjustments), hyperlinks
You can adjust height, width of photos. In addition, there are two methods to add source link, directly together with photo link or you can add a row at bottom like
Source: link
Code:
[url=link][img width= height=][/img][/url]

Some websites to upload photos and get links to attach in your posts with BBcode.

If the image has later appeared, to resize, adjust the height and width.
Code:
[img height=100 width=100]https://i.ibb.co/hHTbhcr/59160398.jpg[/img]


I can't stress enough the importance of the size tags for the readability's sake.


Also, in case you are taking the image from an external source I suggest you to combine the [ img ] tag With the [ url ] tag to make the image linkable:

I also had this problem when I wanted to upload image with imgur the first time. It was imgbb that solved my problem.
Now that you have seen a way to upload an image. It will be fine if you can lock the thread now.

Can anyone teach me how to post an image on here.. I've tried everything. This is the image: https://imgur.com/gallery/B2iEPSK

I've tried using the img feature on here but all I get is this:


I've also tried changing it to a bb format such as this:
https://i.imgur.com/gallery/B2iEPSK.jpg

Both yielded same results and gives image proxy error.

Thanks

Both of your image urls are invalid.
Once you've uploaded the image to the imgur gallery, right-click on it and select "Copy Image Link". This will give you the correct url to the image.

Like this:
Code:
https://i.imgur.com/w6AtUKF.jpeg

All you have to do now is put that url inside the [img][/ img] tags.

Also, you can decide to add
Code:
[img] and [/img]
to your image, like this:

Code:
[img]https://i.imgur.com/gMQqpOz.jpg[/img]

It should work.

That image seems so familiar, hope you are not trolling.

Haha, definitely not trolling   Cheesy

Maybe I will need to quote this:

Use a computer or change your phone broswer to a computer version. It does not work on mobile version
Visit https://imgur.com
At the left upper corner, click on 'new post'
Then click on 'choose image'
Drag or choose the image you want to post
It will be uploaded on the site
On the image, click on the leftmost upper corner
Click on the three dots that appear
Click on 'get shared links'
Then click on BBCode (Forums)
Paste the image link here on this forum.

It will look like this:
Code:
[img]https://talkimg.com/images/2023/05/14/blob4dc0c74d1a5670bf.jpeg[/img]


If the image has later appeared, to resize, adjust the height and width.
Code:
[img height=100 width=100]https://talkimg.com/images/2023/05/14/blob4dc0c74d1a5670bf.jpeg[/img]
