Image Uploading Complication

[Renko]

It seems sometimes I encounter some problems when it comes to linking certain images to this site.

When seen in edit and preview, the images are showing up fine.

But once posted, they became broken links!

Any of the Admins or the Mods here can tell me why is that?

Is there like an image size restriction that prevents them from showing up properly?

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

edit: It seems in my haste to find answers for my predicament, I failed to notice that I posted this in the wrong section. Would I appreciate if this thread can be move to the appropiate place.

Do you have an example of an image that has this problem?

It is easily reproducible with gifs of large enough size. Things look fine locally in the edit window because of (I assume) browser caching.

But it seems to have other causes as well, associated with some websites. I don't know about the specific causes.

Noted. I'll investigate once I'm not on mobile.

I've been trying to upload a pic from own PC for like, a week and a half with no go as well.

That's an attachment, and attachments aren't allowed. You must host it elsewhere such as imgur, and then link it here with the img bbcode.

I could before... sorry.

I am having the same problem myself with a chapter I just posted. All the other images and gifs worked just fine except for that one and I am confused as to why there was a problem there because I specifically did the process of uploading the images to postimages . org to get a direct link for all the other ones but only that gif is having viewing issues when I hit save changes. Any ideas as to what am I doing wrong?

Link the image?

Since it didn't became visible and I had the same problem with one image in the subsequent chapter I just posted, I ended up just putting the direct link up for those that want to check it out. Not the most ideal option though, given that there aren't any issues with mot of the images and I am using the same program on all of them to upload them.

It may not actually be a gif. It's likely an mp4, which our software doesn't support linking.

 

[alethiophile]

It looks like the problem is that that site plays silly buggers with its URLs -- when you go to that link, it redirects you to their HTML page with all their ads on it, and the QQ server cache doesn't know what to do with it. I don't know why it's inconsistent across different images, though.

I find that a bit unlikely, given that I specifically turn the mp4 footage I will be using into gif files on ezgif . com.

Hey there again! I see you've made some progress with the story!

Regarding romance - honestly when I started writing this, it wasn't really on my mind and still isn't my main concern. I'm focused on the plot first. If relationships develop naturally as the story goes, that's fine, but if not, that's also fine. Annie and Anja's relationship is pretty complex and hard to define with a single tag, their dynamic is just another part of the larger mystery. But the way I deal with pre existing characters is to attempt to replicate how they were originally written and allowing them to evolve on its own, if that makes sense, with regards to their personalities and sexual orientations for that matter.

The bloodline stuff was a good catch! Without spoiling anything, yeah, there is something inherited, if you could call it that, going on there, though it works quite differently from the Ackerman situation. You'll see what I mean as the story continues.

About Anja being a titan shifter is an interesting theory. The story will tell you more about what she is in the upcoming chapters. They have noticed similarities, but maybe not in the way you might expect.

For that last bit just remember to keep an eye on the small details, they are all over the place, even some things that have to be decrypted. And yeah, things might get even more intense from here!

Glad you're enjoying it so far! It's cool seeing your theories as you read through. Let me know if you have any more questions!

Can we start over?

This thread is not exactly the right one for it.

The mods will come here and might ban you due to topic derail and necromancy.

I'll post the stuff that you responded in the Wolfborn thread and you just copy-paste what you posted here! Yeah?

I haven't read it yet.
