Unable to add photos to post

[Okkeus Dainlei]

For some reason I am unable to add photos to post. I was able to for a while, now I get a message that pops up saying it canning create the image. I have tried this many different images from different sites, and none are working. Any ideas on what to do? I have already contacted an administrator, but I have heard nothing back yet

Okkeus Dainlei can you give us one or more sample images that you're trying to use?

Here are two of the images I was trying to upload

Now I feel like an idiot. The "photo" link button wasnt working, but if I just paste the link it somehow works. Sorry for that

Okkeus Dainlei The links you have in your post aren't the direct image links with their extensions, you need to use the URL that ends with the extension type for the image, i.e; .jpg or .gif and so on. Pinterest links and youtube videos need to use the Media tags.

To build upon what Darth Alekto said, just to be extra clear: A neat way to get that link when using most online sources is to right-click on the image itself and "Copy image address"

Once you have that link, you can either use the tool which the site provides (Ctrl+P) and insert the link there, or write:

[img]X[/img]

and replace X with the link.
