丂ħ̧i̧₣ɫ̵γ͘ ̶™ Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 (edited) I'm trying to post an imgur gif link that meets the criteria, but I keep getting an error message that the image size cannot be determined. Is there a reason for this? Perhaps from the recent change in forum design/theme/layout/upgrade? It's been 2 months, I need to update my sig. Image in question: I keep getting this message: Unable to retrieve signature image dimensions for https://forum.politicsandwar.com/applications/core/interface/imageproxy/imageproxy.php?img=https://i.imgur.com/gHHktsH.gif&key=17011ffaabd0b4182fba84adee870806eb4ad76793b3ab8de1dfc46a8ca41c5a, please try another image.

Honey Monster Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 I am not sure what you were doing - I copied the link from the img source, pasted it into your sig box and was able to get it to pop up. Don't put image tags on it or anything and maybe there was a slight issue with your page refresh. Sometimes these boxes will mess up and go from an html to a regular rich text convert and get shitty.

Administrators Alex Posted May 2, 2018 Administrators Share Posted May 2, 2018 Maybe you were trying to use a .gifv or .webm URL instead of .gif? I imagine it only supports .gif extensions. Imgur may try to use one of those other ones by default for some animated images. Quote Is there a bug? Report It | Not understanding game mechanics? Ask About It | Got a good idea?

Tried it again this time around, didn't work again I keeping getting no one else has complained about it, but mind you I change my sig very often, moreso than average and I do have a VIP legacy mask. Perhaps something is off with my permissions or something was messed up with the forum upgrade? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eva-Beatrice Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 I'm actually having the same issue. Whenever I try to update my signature, even if no changes were made, I get the same error. The image is 650x175px and a png. 6 1 Quote When the seagulls cried, none were left alive. "If life is a miracle, then death is a certainty."

James XVI Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Had the same issue when I updated my sorry excuse for a signature image a few months back (just forgot/was too lazy to mention it). Fairly certain I tried it with both .jpg and .png, but would get that same message. Got around it by just using the 'upload image' option in that instance, though would be nice to be able to just add an image link - less annoying to edit/change then.

Popular Post Eva-Beatrice Posted July 29, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 29, 2018 Uploading the image as an attachment and inserting it into the sig worked for me as well. 8 1 Quote When the seagulls cried, none were left alive.
