Change postimg.org to postimg.cc

[Luxman]

The image hosting site postimg.org is having domain problems so any forum link of an image hosted before last week at postimg.org doesn't work.
To see the image, you have to click "Reply with Quote" on the post with the image, copy the link, paste it in the address bar of a new tab/windows, change the postimg.org to postimg.cc, and you will be able to see the pic or gif.
They say it's a temporary problem, that will be fixed and the links will soon work again.

Or you can click "Reply with Quote" on the post with the image, change the postimg.org to postimg.cc in the quoted link, and create a new post in the same thread so the pic can be seen.

Yup figured that one out. I'm not going through my stuff here to change to .cc

Stinks but hopefully they keep both so won't lose again.

Good riddance.

Good riddance.

What image hosting site do you use?


Typo in my first post above, the hosting website is postimage.org, and postimg.org only appears in the direct links to the pics or gifs.

I am speaking of the photos no longer available. The site post image is fine.

Update:

I also posted some pics to pixxxels.org, and it has the same problem, it has to be changed to pixxxels.cc

There is also an extension for chrome, Postimage Link Fixer, that will allow you to see the photos, but it doesn't work for pixxxels.org

If you "reply with quote" on my posts, you can copy the link, paste it in the address bar, change postimg.org to postimg.cc, or pixxxels.org to pixxxels.cc, you will be able to see the pic.

Is it possible for the mods or admin to do an auto search and replace of the entire forum to change postimg.org to postimg.cc and pixxxels.org to pixxxels.cc ???

:thumbsup: Thanks for this thread Luxman. It came in handy, especially in the "Picture of the Day" thread. Makes sense now. I like tie ins.

We should create a new thread for usable, lasting free image host sites in the "Questions, Comments and Suggestions" area, replacing this old one with fresh and working information:

https://board.freeones.com/showthre...-services-and-instructing-members-to-use-them

I believe we could get Adam or another admin to swap the old one with a new thread.

We could create a thread to get the info collected and discuss how the thread should be structured.

I contacted postimage.org and they said that the domains postimg.org and pixxxels.org are gone forever.

So can a freeones admin. do and auto search and replace of the entire forum to change postimg.org to postimg.cc, and pixxxels.org to pixxxels.cc in the posted links!?!?!?
