-snip- I also tried adding '.png' after the ProtonDrive link, but get the same result.

Image extensions such as PNG, JPEG or others cannot simply be added to a file, including the Proton drive link. The link doesn't work because it doesn't exist on the image hosting server.

I re-uploaded an image from the Proton drive to Imgur. I try to fix the code arrangement in the image link.

@OP, maybe you can use machine translation to see one of my threads below: [TUTORIAL] Cara Layout Image (Insert-Resize-Link).

Goodnight, ohh Leo!!! 🦅

Sorry buddy..... Cheesy

I was totally disappointed, just as you are, when I realized that I couldn't post images for a start ...yeah, actually, that's impossible.
Everyone said imgur, yeah? That'll be fine too.
You'll just have to follow up the instructions and fix up a photograph (whatsoever), that doesn't exit the picture- size limit, then you're good to go. Well, I wasn't really comfortable with imgur -- not that anything happened though but, I just loved imgbb; I'm dropping a link so could follow for preference.
Here is the link

Just make sure you upload images when not logged in if you are concerned about your privacy (The only downside is that you won't be able to delete the image once it's uploaded)

Actually if you have account in imgur you have option to make uploaded image hidden unlike without an account. It won't go into public if you didn't click the "make public" its hidden only in imgur but if you share the image outside the imgur its viewable without info related to your account. So its safe if you concern about privacy.

I was hoping to avoid using some image sharing site that will start to demand payment once I have invested significant effort. That happened to me with photobucket a few years back and I don't want a repeat of that, hence my attempt to use ProtonDrive.

ProtonDrive may be a good cloud storage provider, but it was never intended as image hosting. Although you can share your files publicly via a link, ProtonDrive will never provide you with a direct URL for the image to be able to post images on the forum. As already mentioned, Imgur and Imgbb are probably the two oldest and most popular services for free image hosting. They have a long history so there is no reason to fear that you might run into problems in the future. Even if you encounter some kind of restrictions during free use, you can simply change your IP address or use a VPN because no registration is required.

I think imgur or ImgBB have no problem since they are free image hosting sites. Just make sure you upload images when not logged in if you are concerned about your privacy (The only downside is that you won't be able to delete the image once it's uploaded)

The problem is probably with the website you are using for hosting images.
Try it a with a different image hosting website like imgur.com. It should work without any problem.

Thank you!

I'll try that.

You have a problem with your image URL. I tried opening the URL in a new window and it does not work. It has nothing to do with the forum. Try using a different image hosting service.

When I click on the link, it opens a download link. But maybe that only works for me because I am logged in to Protonmail at the moment.

Obviously, you cannot create a valid image URL by appending the .jpg or .png extension to a random string of characters.

To post image is not hard. On your computer, or set your mobile browser to web or desktop mode and visit https://imgur.com/upload. You will see what you will click on to upload image. After the image has been uploaded, click at the top right corner of the image, you will see three dots, click on it, click on 'get shared links' and finally copy BBCode (forums) link which is the link you will paste here on this forum.

On the link you post above, you can see how you can adjust the height and width like this:

Code:

[img height=200 width=180]https://i.imgur.com/AlkgxPt.jpg[/img]

That is an image of a scam site, but the one that is very close to me to upload as an example.

You can also use imgbb.com and postimages.org as alternatives to imgur.

I have a problem with images not posting.

I only just made it to Jr Member status and have not posted an image successfully, yet.

I try to follow the instructions here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.37748469

However, the images show up as : Bitcointalk.org image proxy: Invalid image

The link I am using is this: https://drive.proton.me/urls/T6WS4KN898#R3RZei8w1qwf

and the code in total is this: [url=https://drive.proton.me/urls/T6WS4KN898#R3RZei8w1qwf.png]

][url=https://drive.proton.me/urls/T6WS4KN898#R3RZei8w1qwf.png]

[/acronym][/url]

or this (neither of them work):
https://drive.proton.me/urls/T6WS4KN898#R3RZei8w1qwf.png[/img]]

I also tried adding '.png' after the ProtonDrive link, but get the same result.
