This is very good development. Since this TalkImg.com is directly connected to bitcointalk only, it is better because imgur website this days is malfunctioning, there are sometimes you tried to upload image but with would not uploaded. The site just misbehave any how. Before this image disappearance issue, the site was not working perfectly like before.
Though I have not used TalkImg.com to upload image but other users testimonies, I believed the site works perfectly.

These images are straight out of midjourney. Sincerely speaking, I have no time to convert those to other formats before uploading to talkimg.
And I don’t know if it is me only, but I don’t see the image you say you see. I am on safari mobile right now.

You don't see any image here:
What I've been suggesting is to reload the image, as I've done now (as a guest) and it works:
Code:
[img height=250]https://talkimg.com/images/2023/05/13/foxpup555d6923ead2e71cdb7.png[/img]
As I said, I even understand the discomfort of the situation, but I still haven't been able to understand a logical reason for this to happen.
The idea of the size/format of the image could be a case, even so I don't believe it. As long as you download the image and re-upload it it works - without any editing.
I still haven't been able to understand the reason or its origin, if it's related to me or not.
EDIT:
While I was writing this post, your images started to appear!!! I did nothing! How strange is that!!!
What I noticed in all these cases is that we are talking about PNG images with almost 1MB, which for a PNG is very heavy and is not common. But on the other hand, it doesn't make sense that this happens, because if you upload the image again, it doesn't happen anymore.
So at this moment the suggestion I can give is that when you detect this situation, upload the image again.

It's a long list like this:

They were all in the same folder!? Strange, it is rarely organized like this.
Is this link where you are taking it from, or was it the link being used in the posts?
Pure curiosity: Do you have any data on how many image uploads and how much data is used already? How many uploads per day on average?
At the end of the month I will present more concrete statistical data. But I can say that we have 1000 images and an average of 230KB per image.
The image size is well below the maximum allowed dimension.
Other users have already warned of the same situation.

I've done several analyzes and I can't find any explanation for this happening.
I think it might be related to the forum images proxy. I have already contacted theymos to verify.

Hey joker_josue, I used your tool yesterday for my local board overview, I liked it and I plan to continue to use it going forward. One question though: is it possible for it to automatically reset every time when I click "Upload", instead having to manually click "Reset" when I want to upload more images in a row?
Uploading multiple images in a row is easy! Simply drag and drop all the images at once or use the "browse from your PC" function to select multiple images in one go. Plus, you'll be able to copy-paste all the BBcode in a single step, making the process even more efficient. Hope that helps!
I used talkimg on a post of mine, but the image fails to show up properly. I can see it loading, but it then disappears.
The image shows up instead with another service.
Is that just me or there is a reason for this?

Just one question, maybe I missed something, but what if people not from Bitcointalk will start to use TalkImg? From what I understood from FAQ post, image simply won't be displayed if I will try to post it on Bitcoin.com forum for example?
I configured the server so that images can only be used on the Bitcointalk forum. But Hotlink protection is never 100% guaranteed, and eventually in some cases it may be possible to post elsewhere.
Now, the disclaimer is clear: it's only meant to work on Bitcointalk. I am not responsible if they use the images on other sites, and from one moment to the next they stop working. I'm constantly making adjustments to the server, and this can lead to some parameters changing and something that previously worked outside of this forum, no longer works.
That's why I say: this service is only to be used on the BitcoinTalk forum. Avoid using it in other places, there is a risk that it will not work or stop working in those places in the future.
EDIT: I am not saying that this rule cannot change in the future, but for now this is the objective of the service. I prefer to keep this objective, because that way I know I can guarantee the best possible service. But in the future it might change.
Pretty amazing that this is possible.
Big shout-out from my side for this super cool and needed project. Just the right time when imgur seems to have gone down completely.
Sent you a quick pm to maybe help out a little with translation.

It's not impossible. But we had to see how the images were organized on imgur.com.

It may be something related to the forum proxy, I don't know. I'll try talking to theymos to see if he has any suggestions.

when updating my posts/threads i also have the problem with some images that they are then briefly displayed when loading the thread and then disappear.
i think that both of you can fix the problem - the question is only what the whole thing is now, that it comes to such problem...
Yeah, this is also strange to me. Btw I found another thread with this issue. Suddenly I visit this thread today and noticed the header image loaded and disappeared. I tried with Latop and Mobile phone. Both are same. Can you please confirm me someone if you are also facing the issue?
Note: Topic creator also used talkimg to host the images.

Again, this is very strange and I can't figure out why! I took this image, and re-uploaded it as a guest, and it works correctly:

What I ask at the moment is that when this type of situation is detected, upload the image again.

This is very strange. I can't find a logical reason for this. Because when I load the image it works normally, as you can see. It is working fine on the server, it downloads without problems, and uploads again and it works. Quite honestly, I can't see why, sorry.

Greate work 
Can we able to post Gifs by using this platform?

Majority of the images I used in my service and in my ANN threads are now gone (error) this project of yours is really great for all the users of the Bitcointalk, thank you @joker_josue

Slight problem: I've downloaded 398 images so far, and it takes 92 MB. I don't know the exact number yet, but it looks like there are about 800k images in total. So give or take 200 GB 
Maybe you can compress them or convert to other image type to reduce size and still keep the same look like of original images.I like the idea of replacing images if possible, or forum will soon look like ''war'' zone
Can you, @LoyceV or @tryninja or anyone program a script that allow each user to download all the images of each posts on a directory? So that thoseximages are not lost and can be later re-uploaded?
Or even better than substituting the Imgur hosting with Tlkimg editing the BBC code every time it parses an [img] command?
We must avoid the “war zone” scenario at all ccosts!

I have an immediate feature request: add a couple of field for “height” and “width” attributes.
Good idea, I am supporting it but this should be only with keeping aspect ration same, so maybe something like percentage slider -%+ for reducing images would be cool.
I've beem using Imgur for many years, now when they started to give proxy errors I thought that's time to switch to this service. What I can say - everything works as supposed to work. So, goodbye Imgur.

I see no harm in that. The system has protection against serial uploads, but one image per hour is at will. Tell me what you need and we can look into it.
I don't think I should need anything but I'll let you know if I run into issues.
Thanks, joker_josue
Just tried it to fix all images for the BSFL, worked like a charm.
Easy to use, no login needed, saved me the hassle of searching for imgur alternatives.
Cheers!
