Oh Tiniest Bird Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 What were you doing (or trying to do): I wanted to try out VIP, so I bought 60 days and went to customize my nation page. I made a background image and uploaded it.What happened (describe thoroughly please): I uploaded my background image to Imgur. Now I'm having a curious issue - I couldn't see my background image, but other players could. I tried it in 3 different browsers, I could not see the image. So I reuploaded it to Imgur, got a new image link, put that up in PnW. This flipped the issue - I could see my background, but nobody else could. Is this an issue with Imgur? With PnW? Any ideas?Link to page: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=177596Any other relevant information: If this is a simple image hoster issue, I'd love to hear recommendations for alternatives. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Alex Posted September 12, 2019 Administrators Share Posted September 12, 2019 It's an Imgur issue. It's on my to-do list to refactor all of the VIP custom images to upload directly to the game site to avoid this issue. However, in the meantime, you can try using your Imgur link without the "s" in "https" (i.e. Instead of https://imgur.com/blahblah try http://imgur.com/blahblah) or you can upload your image to another site, such as https://imgbb.com/ 1 Quote Is there a bug?

Oh Tiniest Bird Posted September 12, 2019 Author Share Posted September 12, 2019 (edited) Thank you very much for the reply, Alex! Trying a different image host definitely helped. The picture works fine everywhere now. Shame Imgur is being so difficult. Looking forward to your improvements with the site hosting the images.
