It's cool that others have the same idea too. Cookie and I always also mob each other, sometimes just posting specific things for the sake of trolling each other. This week it got dirty again. Such a ... bum.

Exactly. There's a disturbing lack of drama outside the D&D, and you and I are the only ones addressing that. We're the unsung heroes no one wants, needs or deserves!

One could even go so far as to call it a b

fight.

You have the better... arguments, but I have the high ground!

**Morticia Iunia Bruti** · June 03, 2019, 11:17 AM

A

fight?

Bring on the massage oil...

**Derc** · June 03, 2019, 12:15 PM

What kind of 'high ground' do you mean?
Wait - It is better not to know which lady has it. One could easily cheat by installing ... certain devices. A mod for example.

You underestimate my power anyway.

I hoped you'd bring it, so we could restore some magic.

Or did you just venture into that dark cramped cave to let off some steam?

I thought your game was more about... cave explorations.

To quote the honourable Ralph Wiggum: That's unpossible!

Haha, the only thing I learned from all this wonderful conversation is that someone will get massage oil. Who is the lucky man and most importantly, why did he need this, remains a mystery to me. But it's funny, no doubt.

**Morticia Iunia Bruti** · June 03, 2019, 02:28 PM

At the moment i'm using more YOL.
Burn for me baby.

But atm i'm searching for not glittering vampires...

**Swaeft** · June 03, 2019, 10:18 PM

Glad to see some firendly banter going on

Saw this in the UESW 462 submission thread where it's not supposed to be answered, I reckon.

Highly unlikely, unless there is something very wrong with it, but that you would notice in all sorts of ways. Your internet connection or indeed, the hosting service are a much more likely source for causing issues.

**Caillagh de Bodemloze** · June 08, 2019, 09:33 AM

I think you're right, Veteraan. I think Van Zandt's having the same problem I've been having recently - imgur have changed things so that the links they provide (at least on some browsers) no longer work. If your browser is one of the ones affected, then you will find that the links imgur gives you don't include the file type for your image. All you need to do to make the link work is to add .jpg or .png in the appropriate spot in the link... but I'm afraid I haven't found a way of correcting this without manually adding the file type.

Hmm, I also use IMGUR and they do provide links of course. It sometimes can be difficult to get the right one. I seldom bother to do that though, I simply copy the picture I want from IMGUR and paste it where I want it on TWC. Like for instance my contributions here, easy as pie really.

Like I did here:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

Just click on the image you want on IMGUR, then copy the image and paste it. You can't do it from the thumbnail, you have to click that first.

Also IMGUR currently links you to their new Beta version which is a bit awkward in my opinion. However you can switch back to the original lay out from there. The option should be somewhere below on the page IIRC.

**Commissar Caligula_** · June 08, 2019, 05:12 PM

I always just upload the image to Imgur, right click on it and click Copy Image Address, then paste that inside some [IMG] tags.

I guess that works and also doesn't require much effort, although still not as quick as copy/pasting directly, which doesn't need any tags at all to work.

**King Athelstan** · June 08, 2019, 08:22 PM

As I use the source editor, what Calig is my standard and the easiest option for me

**Caillagh de Bodemloze** · June 09, 2019, 11:41 AM

Just to add to the confusion, Caligula's method works for me (and always has), but Veteraan's doesn't. I don't know why. And I can't find any way of switching back to the original layout - do you need to be logged in for that? I don't have an imgur account, so I can't check. It seems there are several variables that affect what options people might have available...

**Veteraan** · June 09, 2019, 12:04 PM

I do have a IMGUR account and are logged in when I visit the site, perhaps that makes a difference for switching back and the copy paste thing. However, perhaps the browser matters also, although I wouldn't know how. I use Opera.

**Swaeft** · June 09, 2019, 12:11 PM

Hang on, for those with Imgur, isn't copy-pasting the bbcode link the easiest way? I get this screen right after I upload a picture, and choose the bbcode option when copy pasting.

**Alexander78** · June 09, 2019, 12:21 PM

Hmm.. with my hosting there is no problem, but I noticed that sometimes the images do not appear in the thread, as if there was a broken link. Although at the beginning everything is fine and loaded perfectly.
