Hey guys,
I've noticed some of y'all are using the same image storage site (imgbb.com) as each other, which is lately having some problems with showing your saved pics to other people. I would suggest y'all find a new place to store your pictures. Otherwise a lot of your stuff is breaking in your signatures, updates, and everywhere else you use those images stored on said image storage site. You might not be noticing it because the problem is related to how often your pics are viewed by others. You already have that pic in your cache etc., and you're viewing it. So you don't see the issue. But this site is small, not a lot of refreshes on your pics. So people like me have started coming across them and seeing 'service not available' because imgbb has put in place this lockdown on images not viewed a lot, putting them into 'storage' for a lot longer when accessed, etc.,
If you don't want to have your pics coming back as broken for x amount of time until their servers spit out the picture, I'd suggest some place like tinypic because their servers and such don't have the same reliance (and they have not changed like imgbb did to cause this problem). Do NOT use Discord for image storage. It'll stay up for like a day and then break because they stopped allowing file storage like that. Another option is making a throwaway tumblr account and uploading your pics, saving it in drafts (or posting idc up to you I just maybe wouldn't suggest tagging it as anything or do, idc abt that either lol it's YOUR picture).
Just a little gentle suggestion. Y'all don't have to change lol Just. Pictures are breaking a lot as I scroll through the site and when I researched the site, it was making waves as having issues that aren't easily solved on the user's end besides finding a new place to store their pictures.
(I was going to approach people separately but every time I think I've found everyone, someone else's stuff breaks lol So this is easier. Also in case you ARE getting these problems but couldn't figure out why, well. Here you go.)
