Hey guys!

I'm quite new to the forums, so i was reading David's post about using Imgur to upload photos. The guide said to use the 'Direct Link' feature. When I uploaded my image, that option wasn't there! Should I use the BBcode or another feature? Sorry if this is a noob question.

There are other tutorials.

 

But the gist, copy image URL, click that image with a tree, paste, click OK, bam.

I followed the steps using each of the different links, but it didn't do anything except say 'This image extension is not allowed in this community.'

You probably used the link in the URL that was previewed, not the origin link. When you right click any image and open it in a new tab, that's the URL you want.
