comments below image only showing on first instance (or after reload)

Tomas Amby 11 years ago • updated 11 years ago • 1

For some days now, comments below the post are only showing on the first instance (user submitted or most popular, alike), none after "right arrow" or clicking "next".

Have to reload each page to see them.

True for Firefox 22.0 + NoScript, AdBlockPlus as well as Safari 5.1.9 (also using AdBlock + NoScript), both on Mac OS X 10.6.8 and Mac OS X 10.7.x.

Newly installed GoogleChrome on 10.6.8 (with AdBlock and an Extension similar to NoScript) doesn't require reload ("normal" behaviour).

Suggestions?

Thx, tom

I want my "thumbnails" to be wide.

Michael_google gmail_Gersten 13 years ago • updated by Sarah 13 years ago • 0
Right now, all thumbnail images seem to be square-ish (probably 4:3 if I measured).

I want to have wide thumbnails.

I do *NOT* mean letterboxed. I mean wide. Without top/bottom bands.

There are more thumbnail options for pro accounts.

If you would like to have an image removed, you can use the deletion links you were provided with upon uploading. You can also use the "request deletion" link: imgur.com/removalrequest.

New Images in Gallery

Zach Bach 13 years ago • updated by Sarah 13 years ago • 0
Often, throughout the day, as new images are added to the gallery, they are added in random spots in the gallery. Is there a way to make it so the gallery is updated in order as the day progresses? I will randomly find pictures that I missed/didn't see because they were placed in the middle of the gallery.

Thanks!

- Zach  
Answer
Sarah 13 years ago
The best way to look for new images is to check the new tab rather than the hot tab. They are placed randomly because their rank is determined by view counts and votes, which could place them anywhere on the gallery initially.

Would be good if OEmbed api includes information about thumbnails

Esteban Feldman 12 years ago • 0

Hi, RedditPics Here... making another lib for Ruby and found out that your OEmbed info doesn't provide the thumbnail link... would be awesome to do it, so I can use the OEmbed API.


http://www.oembed.com/#section2 Response parameters 2.3.4


thumbnail_url (optional)

A URL to a thumbnail image representing the resource. The thumbnail must respect any maxwidth and maxheightparameters. If this paramater is present, thumbnail_width and thumbnail_height must also be present.



Could you? Please... Thanks a lot.

There is no complete list. Those subgalleries create themselves based on subreddits. So it's likely that if there is a subreddit, there is a subgallery.

Uploading through Tor error

JP Cantalino 13 years ago • updated by Kara Markić 10 years ago • 2
I keep trying to upload an image to my account, but it says that I am using the TOR network. I have TOR and Vidalia completely disabled. I rebooted and still no cigar. Uploading through TOR shouldn't be an issue. Especially in censored countries.
Answer
Sarah 13 years ago
We're really sorry, but due to the large amount of abuse we've seen coming from TOR IP addresses, we can no longer accept uploaded images from people using TOR or running TOR relays. The TOR detection is based on DNS which typically takes a day or two to refresh.

Why do the quality of images get worse?

Crystal Tang 14 years ago • updated by Alan Schaaf (Founder) 14 years ago • 0
It used to have a slide bar to adjust quality after uploading the image, but now it's gone. All the quality of JPG images are not as good as before. Do you guys change the settings? I am the kind of person that really cares about the quality of my images. I'm glad that I've found imgur, but now it makes me a little bit disappointed because the same situation happened to me once before (by another famous image uploading website). Any solutions for my concern? Thank you.
Answer
Alan Schaaf (Founder) 14 years ago
This never changed. The quality slider is still available, you just need to select "Edit" before you upload. Or, if you're in your account, select "Edit Images".

Sometimes the images are compressed if they are above 1MB in size, but again, the compression settings have not changed in over a year.

Preview box with copy options does not show in google chrome

Follow Me 13 years ago • updated by Sarah 13 years ago • 0
In google chrome when I  click the image thumbnail, the preview box that lists all the copy options does not show. All I get is a blank black page and have to refresh the page. To get my images to display on other websites I have to ctrl + click the box and right click + copy url of image. It works perfectly fine Firefox. This problem seems to have come out of nowhere.

Is there any way you could replace the click-to-copy buttons with elements that hook into flash, instead of actual flash objects?

Sean Reese 12 years ago • 0

After I copy a link I usually use a keyboard shortcut of some kind, but I can't use most shortcuts when a flash element is focused.


If it's possible for the flash element to give up focus after it does the copying, that would be great too. Or even test for HTML5 clipboard APIs and just fallback to flash. Anything that doesn't break keyboard shortcuts.


Also, thanks for being an image ninja.

Editing my pics.

Hitting s while in my own album conflicts with Google Chrome's "search by image" hotkey feature.

RayRay Avid Lebon 10 years ago • 0
In Chrome if you hover over an image, press s then right click your mouse it will search using that image. However, Imgur has it's own hotkey assigned to "s" while in my own album, preventing me from looking up information about photos/landmarks/sources/art/objects. I can't turn it off under settings and it is incredibly frustrating. I want to turn hotkeys off!

Refresh idle timer for image deletion in PHP

ephestione 14 years ago • updated by Alan Schaaf (Founder) 14 years ago • 2
To prevent auto image deletion by imgur, would a simple PHP code like:

fclose(fopen("http://i.imgur.com/xxxxx.jpg"))

be enough to reset the "idle timer"? My freecycling website uses your API, and if users renew listings (each 60 days) I would also like to refresh images... if listings expire (no renewal after 60 days) or users ask for deletion, I always call the deletion URL of pictures with this method, so I just want to make sure images stay on imgur as long as listings are on my website :)
Answer
Alan Schaaf (Founder) 14 years ago
Yep, that will work. However, you could also use cURL and grab only the headers. This would be much faster because you wouldn't have to wait for PHP to grab the whole file.

Please remove the upvote/downvote buttons from your comments when viewed on your profile. I recently made a light hearted post about downvote fairies, and have received over 130 downvotes from trolls going to my profile and downvoting everything

Chris Phillips 10 years ago • 0
I recently made a light hearted post about downvote fairies, and have received over 130 downvotes from trolls going to my profile and downvoting everything. Yes they're 'just' internet points, but most people like getting upvoted (and so most people don't like getting downvoted). It's disheartening to be punished by trolls when you make legitimate posts to try and engage with the imgur community.
Answer
Alan Schaaf (Founder) 14 years ago
Uppercase letters are completely valid in URLs. In fact, most websites have case-sensitive URLs - including Imgur.

Allowing uppercase letters means that there are many many more filename permutations which means we won't have to extend the length of our filenames for a long time.

There are no plans to make the URLs lowercase. This is not a problem with Imgur, it's a problem with sites that ignore uppercase filenames.

I REALLY REALLY REALLY hate the new gallery format, because it doesn't make any damn sense. everything is out of order. can we PLEASE go back to the way things were a few days ago? i swear, i'm addicted to flipping through the gallery, and this new way i have to flip through old content all the time. i just want to see new stuff all the time.
Answer
Alan Schaaf (Founder) 14 years ago

I don't understand. Nothing is out of order, it's just displayed a little differently because they are broken down by days. There was no separation by days in the old version -- it was just all lumped together.


If you want to see all the new stuff, click on the "new" link and everything new from today is right there. Then if you scroll down, you get more days with stuff sorted by the newest.

Accidental commenting

James Fiorvento 12 years ago • 0

Pressing the "Enter" key while commenting automatically submits the comment. For me, this can be quite annoying, because I often accidentally hit "Enter" while trying to input an apostrophe or quotation mark. This leads to half-finished posts, explanations of said posts, and than trying to post it again correctly this time. 


So, my humble idea is that pressing the "Enter" key should not automatically submit the comment.
