That doesnt really answer the question.
Because we don't like it that certain forums are spammed with goatse and that girl in a tub :O
 
Because our benefactors said so.
 
[ img]www.picture.com/picture.jpg[ /img]

Without the spaces.
 
It works in ot, but not for me.
Did someone disable my ability to use img tags? A good reason why, please.
 
Do a quick check in your User CP:

Control Panel/Edit Options/Thread Display Options/Visible Post Elements

Be sure the appropriate box is checked.
 
Show images is enabled.
It worked when i made the free ipod thread.... :/
Since that if i use the tags it only shows the link to the image instead of the image itself, if i edit the post the img tags are still there.

Thats probably why the mods don't like you then and did it, i would do it too, i hate those schemes. Was you the one who tried to trick people with that link so you got credit for it or something? I can't remember, or were you the one with it in the prison cell? That was entertaining. No idea overall. Maybe your doing something really silly wrong.
 
Perhaps the administrators have put a size limit on images that can be displayed.

That would make sense, saving people with slower connections a bit of trouble, and keeping things a bit tidier.

I can't remember who posted it, but there was a ridiculously sized image posted in the "Funniest pic on your HDD" a couple of days ago, maybe that sparked it.

edit: hmmmmm.. the image size still isnt the problem..... look at this thread http://www.halflife2.net/forums/showthread.php?t=95047
that huge image works but a 500x500 image i posted earlier didnt show up.
 
I was using imageshack.us. Maybe they stopped images from there being shown but didnt block the site address.

Well imageshack had an internal server error (500) yesterday evening, so maybe your pictures got (partly) erased :/
 
The links worked if you clicked them, just the img tags had no effect. very strange :rolling:
 
Ok, I think this is all sorted.

Reaktor4, if there's any more problems then let us know :)

Also, I'd suggest trying to use IMG tags from sources other than imageshack first before reporting again. Cheers :)
