IMGBB seems to have collapsed

Imgur is better.

Just add .com at the end.

You have to set up an account, though.

Still works for me.

It won't get to the part where it gives me the url.

You must have gotten locked out (due to abuse maybe?) because I haven't had any issues with it.

It wasn’t working two hours ago ..the dreaded circle of hell going on, and on…

Yeah, I couldn't get it to work this morning either. It would upload the image and say 100% complete but it would never give me a link.

No issues for me - sounds like a user error on your part, OP

It’s all OP’s fault! Stop doing this to us, Op—now!

I set up an account on there, it seems to be down more than its up. Imgur is far better and should be the default for here, it is also far more widely used and known

But do image previews work here for Imgur?

Im-uh-gur

Imgur Stevens

R10 they dont for some reason. Something that would not be difficult for DL to fix

Haha. As if that ever resulted in any updates.

Imgur also includes your user name in the photo description, which defeats the purpose of anonymity.

I'm not the OP, but it hasn't been working for me today either.

Sounds like IMGBB prolapsed!

Seems like thumbnail previews for ImgBB have now been disabled on DL, following a similar decision for YouTube last month. Oh well, it was nice while it lasted.

Link previews hardly have a point anymore.

r19 How so? Aren't you annoyed by having to click on a link to see the image? I usually just scroll past if I don't see a link preview.

r20 because most of them don't work.

But those that do (well, did) made it worth it. Can't be arsed to screenshot a shirtless dude or a hot ass on a TV show anymore now that ImgBB doesn't work anymore. The whole place looks a lot more boring.

YouTube works R18.

HTML thumbnail works but duplicates the image.

Or not.

I swear I saw the images before I hit submit.

what link did you r24 use to get the YT preview? Neither the youtube.com or the youtu.be versions worked.

I copied the video link on YouTube.com R26.

I tried to paste the link address in the body of this reply but I got a permission denied message.

r27 So I guess it's a mystery on why it works sometimes but not others.

Hopefully, it’ll all get sorted out soon R28.

R29 I have a bridge in Brooklyn....

imgbb has been going down, then up, then down for awhile now. You can tell by going to a website checker such as "Down for Everyone or Just Me." There are many such sites that do this, some with user comments saying what issues other people are encountering at the website.

For posting photos at DL, I've now switched over to imgbox, since the photos hosted there still show up in the link previews at DL.

bump

I've used it several times yesterday and today. .. The links are even showing up on DL again.

Yes, it's been working fine for weeks now.

Good riddance to it!

IMGBB sucks!

It's for 80 year olds who don't know how to use the internet.

I guess IMGBB will never be President.

Its collapse is complete.

Is it still up & running in 2025?

Has everyone on the DL left this site?

r38 No, why?

^ Is IMGBB back to its normal self or not?

r40 Try it yourself
