Issue posting images

By Bjorn Rockfist, in X-Wing Off-Topic

It started yesterday, but everytime I click the image button in the window the screen darkens but the url box doesn't come up. I have tried other site's forums and it works there...just not on FFGs anymore.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Have you tried image tags?

What browser are you using? I know I had issues with the various functions when I used IE. Not so much since I've switched to Chrome.

Yeah I am using IE, but it's weird that it worked one day and stopped the next....and only on this site's fourns.

I tried using the img tags to post a pic and I get "You are not allowed to use that image extension on this community"....no clue.

It is possible you might've clicked a pop-up when using the forum. I know I occaisonally got asked if you wanted to give the forum access, mainly when I was trying to cut and paste. I don't know, it doesn't seem very IE friendly.

No clue about a pop-up. I have noticed it's not very IE friendly lol.

I get that sometimes when I copy the wrong URL. Make sure you're using the proper image location and try again.

Check it with a url I know is right and get the same thing. I hope that without telling me or giving me a reason they didn't decide to block me from posting pics since I have never posted a rude or crude pic.

I sincerely doubt that's the case. Why don't you give us a sample URL that you're having trouble with?

I just copied and pasted what is in that white box.......and I get a box that pops up with this.

An error occurred

You are not allowed to use that image extension on this community.

I don't get it. I have no warning points. I have never been contacted about any of my pics being an issue. If they have blocked me from posting pics I'd like a really good explaination!

If you quote my post with the image embedded, does it come up with the same message?

Looks like it works for me too. Again, I'm sure it has nothing to do with being 'blocked' by the mods. There must be another, more technical explanation for what's going on.

Weird.....I quoted you and it showed up. LOL....this is so messed up.

No clue what the issue is with this forum....and this forum only. I did switch my forum theme to the old Fantasy Flight version, and the language is showing English (USA) (Modified).

I figured out how to get pics again....I had to click the button on the top left that disables the rest of the bar above when posting. I can now tag images....weird but it works!
