I am using imgur for my image upload. I get it to assign a link and copy the one with the url. When at copy it to the download manager here and upload, it says invalid link. What am I doing wrong ?????

If you want to upload a pic, you don't copy the url of the image you uploaded on imgur. You have to get it from your computer files (where it might be in a folder)

You can also use the image tag ([ img ] [ / img ] - no need to upload. I think imgur should have a code where it already contains the tags (update: yep. Just get the code under "BBCode (message boards & forums)") --> ex:
http://i.imgur.com/6sXFABh.jpg

EDIT: Actually, I see where you're pasting the url now. I think it's easier to use the bbcode or upload as an attachment from your files.

Okay, so you need to upload it to Imgur, two finger click (right click if youre using widows) select copy image URL, and post it to the image icon above the text box here. It looks like 2 mountains with the sun behind them and the sky is yellow. PM me if you need more help. not now though. I'm about to go to sleep.. :yawn: :)

If you're using imgur, are you using the direct link, or original size link? If you use the "imgur page," it will come back as invalid on VirtualTeen forums.

I think you answered my question, I copy the direct link I think.
