Cant upload Pictures to threads...

[Cryze]

well as the title says, i cant upload any pictures in the forums.

i wanted to share some of my created decks with the community but it doesnt let me.

when ever i click on the image icon, paste my url and then want to view my post it tells me "You are not allowed to use that image extension on this community."...

i looked what others are using as source of their pictures, so they uploaded it to imgur, i did so but still shows the same msg.

so could someone please tell me how to do this correctly? ...

make sure the link ends in a .jpg or .png or .whatever, if you see anything after that part, it won't accept it. To fix it, just delete whatever comes after it, and you should be good to go.

 

for example, http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/yugioh/images/6/67/Jellyfish-MRD-NA-C-UE.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/300?cb=20160526142514

 

It won't accept this, because you have the stuff after the .png. remove it and you get this; http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/yugioh/images/6/67/Jellyfish-MRD-NA-C-UE.png

 

since it now ends in a .png, it can now be properly posted into this:

Originally, you were supposed to click on the card and it'd provide you with an Imgur link. But since April, it hasn't been working. What you can do is save the image of the generated card and upload it to Imgur yourself and use the BBCode you get.

 

EDIT:
