LegitGhosty Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Hello everybody. I have a tendance to post to the latest new topics that arrive. :P But sometimes I try to use GIFs and pics so I use the code [ img ] (link here) [/ img ] (no spaces) but whenever I try to do it, it says "You are not allowed to use that image extension on this community". Can someone help me with this? Thank you for reading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renathy Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 I get that error when I try to post .bmp images. If you upload with an incorrect link, check again. You need a direct link, which usually has the image's extension in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vyaldyn Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 By default, JPG, JPEG, PNG and GIF are allowed. The URL must end in the extension (not pic/23291d923kf92/ for example) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caliocerion Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 It would also be nice to have those standard forum tools available instead of the very minimalistic ones we have right now. I know the forum supports it, because I see other people using more advanced postings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiBBz Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 (edited) here is a tip dont just copy the direct link for the GIF or photo just copy image location and it should work fine EDIT: Right Click and copy image location Edited May 22, 2013 by DiBBz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renan.Ruivo Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 I specifically said '(no spaces)'. Didn't see it, sorry. But the stuff about formatting stands. I've only ever got that error about image format when i accidentaly formatted the BBCode, or the image link within. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEBrandon Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 You are getting the error because there is a space/character behind the extension! Just double check for characters after the .gif :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
