I'm sorry for not knowing, but can someone help me get my imgur pictures to display on the forum. I keep getting the stupid proxy error box.

Explain what you exactly doing and what image you are trying to upload to the site, are you sure you are entering the image url and not the page url? Also, if the image exceeds 1.5mb (I believe it may have been increased to 2.5mb) the image will not display and will need to be made smaller.


Here's a quote from theymos which explains this feature:

Quote from: theymos
bitcointalk.org now runs its own image proxy. GIFs will work now, and images will not be cached. However, images that don't load completely after a few seconds will still not work, and invalid URLs in [img] tags are less likely to work than before. Images must not be larger than 1.5 MB. You are only allowed to download so many images via the proxy before you're banned for a while, but no one acting reasonably should run into this. The proxy can't be used except through posts. Old image URLs will expire after a few months.

Check the source of my comment. I'm just using the image link on the imgur page.

You have copied a incorrect url, this is the code you should use:
Code:
 [img] https://i.imgur.com/pQ9gWEv.jpg [/img] 

In future make sure you right click on the image and select "Copy image URL" this is a direct link to the image, what you were inputting was a link to the web page it was hosted on.
