Seems I can't embed content from imgur on the forum.

I get the error 'You are not allowed to use that image extension on this community'


Is that.. intentional? Didn't see any topics about this yet.

What's the image extension you're trying to use?

The images are PNGs but they're hosted on imgur.

I'll try converting them to JPEG just to test

EDIT: Nope, same thing


But to clarify, I CAN use the forum's picture upload. But my storage is almost full, so I thought I could switch to imgur and simply embed the image.

You can't embed that because it's a link to a web page, not the image. The actual image is http://i.imgur.com/k7keROO.jpg
