I've noticed a few users having trouble using the Image button on the forums. This is the image button: sqJWc.png



For those who can't get the URL to work I have a short guide for you to follow!



Simply right click on the desired image - Choose "Copy Image Address" - And paste the newly copied URL into the image button.



It's literally that easy. Doing this copies the direct image URL which is more reliable than the links provided by imgur and similar websites.

Do NOT copy the image link provided by whatever uploading website you are using

(This is the wrong link to copy. Your link should end with .png/.jpg/etc.)

Credit to OzScorcher for the image.

 

Idk how many people will actually find this usefull - but hopefully at least a few do!


 

For those who do not know how to actually use that url to post an image:

You can either use the image tool or the bbcode.

The problem people have is they copy this URL:

If you want the image to work you ​need to right click and copy the image address as seen in Scotty's picture. Likewise with things like a gyazo, you cannot copy the actual URL of the page you are viewing you need to, once again, right click and copy the address.
