Blacklisted Imaging?

What is this about? It's for a few websites that I copy an image for.

@,

 

Websites that are NSFW in nature and generally contain stuff that is not suitable here are forbidden, which is why this forum has blacklisted certain image websites. Even though some imaging websites contain a majority of clean stuff, it still can contain bad stuff, which can sometimes be easily accessible, which is why some of those sites are blacklisted too.

Well, currently the website is undergoing maintenance so that could be just a minor thing.    However, there are some image extensions that are not allowed on this site, such as Yahoo or Google Images.   Most members, from what I see, post images from DeviantArt.  

 

But I need to ask, are you trying to post an Image or a Website Link?

There're websites that are blacklisted,due for their random/NSFW nature.

Per example,Funnyjunk was blacklisted here,if I don't remember bad.

There's a simple solution to all this,and is to upload the same image with an accepted website,commonly being Imgur,and you shouldn't have any problem.

It was from www.funnyjunk.com

As far as I am aware we do not blacklist any sites to image to, imo maintaining such a list would be a very time consuming and pointless process .

The error that you are seeing is because funny junk does not allow direct hot linking to their images.

Confirming that funnyjunk do disable direct hotlinking

If the problem persists, just save the image and upload it as an attachment.

 

Make sure it's SFW before though!!!

Since the tech monkey Lavo ( ;3c ) has provided the main reason along with a multitude of other answers providing other methods on how to insert the images, I shall lock this thread up and call it a day! ^3^
