FranklinX 37 Report post Posted March 12, 2013 I am having problems posting pictures in my project's thread. I am getting a message that states "This image extension is not allowed at this community.". I am trying to post pictures from my Photobucket account. They are png images.

Marked 197 Report post Posted March 13, 2013 I'm pretty certain the issue here is that your URL doesn't end with png. If it did, you wouldnt get that message. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FranklinX 37 Report post Posted March 13, 2013 I am using the img code. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marked 197 Report post Posted March 13, 2013 I know you are. How else are you gona post an image? The url of the image that you're using in the img tags must end in a valid file extension, eg .png. Not .png?i453o2ijdfs Just post the exact link that wont work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bigace360 38 Report post Posted March 13, 2013 So .jpg doesn't work, only .png? thats weird. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marked 197 Report post Posted March 13, 2013 Nope that was an example. You should have no issue posting images unless you post a dynamic image, eg one which does not end with the file-extension because its a dynamic page sending an image to the browser.

FranklinX 37 Report post Posted March 13, 2013 I can't post it. The system won't allow me. It will will cancel the post and redirect me to the topic's first page. Here is the photobucket link to the picture. http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb31/RATED-RKO_2007/RPG%20Maker%20VX%20Sets/OaklandPreviewPic2_zps24ff35cd.png Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FranklinX 37 Report post Posted March 14, 2013 Yes, I copied the correct link and the system had a problem with it. It would not let me post it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marked 197 Report post Posted March 15, 2013 I forgot to mention that link above that you posted isnt the link i used. Your link redirects me. If you open the link in the browser and the image comes up then you should be fine. Aside from that, if you think I'm wrong, open the link a url and use something like firefox's firebug and yslow (or something similar, chrome probs have the tools built in) and look at the headers sent out by the url/image As in the image, the content type is image/png. In other words, not a url that redirects. But like I said, if opens as an image in your browser in a new tab and ends in .png i will be very suprised if it doesn't work.

Marked 197 Report post Posted March 16, 2013 Something really weird is going on with the IPB editor. The bbcode options suddenly disappeared and I managed to get them back... but there's no reason that should have happened. I may have been wrong. I got a similar error when I manually used the img tag. Using the editors bbcode for the images does work however. Can you confirm that? IPB have got this obsession with creating a live editor.. the bbcode renders immediately. I hate it. Can't change it back :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
