Why won't my images show? [guide]

Here are a few causes of images not showing:

1. You are not using an [img] tag.
If you post the image url as

Code:

http://i0006.photobucket.com/albums/0006/findstuff22/Best%20Images/Photography/096d4852.jpg

then it will not show, but if you put it like

Code:

[img]http://i0006.photobucket.com/albums/0006/findstuff22/Best%20Images/Photography/096d4852.jpg[/img]

it will come out as http://i0006.photobucket.com/albums/0006/findstuff22/Best%20Images/Photography/096d4852.jpg.

2. You are a New Scratcher
If you are still a New Scratcher, the posting images and other privileges are inaccessible to you to prevent spam. Just Scratch On for a while and you can do practically EVERYTHING on the website!

3. It is hosted locally
If the image address is similar to file://~/Pictures/LOL.jpg or file://C:/Users/MrFlash67/Pictures/LOL.jpg then it on your computer and Scratch, nor anyone else can find it.

4. It is hosted on the wrong website
To prevent spam, images on this website can only be from the following hosts:

Lightnin wrote:

tinypic.com
imgur.com
imageshack.us
photobucket.com

Lightnin wrote:

p.s. You can also embed images that are hosted on these Servers:
modshare
scratchr.org
any .edu domain
wikipedia.org
wikimedia.org

So upload to Imgur and get posting! However, for some reason, the image in signatures can be from ANY host.

Hope this helps! I just decided to do this for fun.  tongue

You should probably put [Guide] in the title of the topic, because a lot of experienced scratchers will come here hoping to answer your question, but find it's already answered.
