Something odd about the photo posted in the following post.
viewtopic.php?p=218999#p218999

It looks like a thumbnail but when you click on it, you go to Postimages.org, without a link to the photo. Something about how it was uploaded??

That's because the URL that's linked in the photo goes to postimages.org and not the link to the actual photo.

Code: Select all

[url=https://postimages.org/][img]https://i.postimg.cc/cCSzfCWF/download-1.jpg[/img][/url]
It should be:

Code: Select all

[url=https://postimg.cc/hz2MBSfm][img]https://i.postimg.cc/cCSzfCWF/download-1.jpg[/img][/url]
No idea why that particular one changed. Maybe it was manually done.

Don't thnk I did anything different. I found the image via a Google search. Downloaded it, and then hit the button to post it. Same thing I did here.

Apparently it has to do with the size of the image. I'm not sure what the threshold is, but tiny images link one way and large images link another. :?

Wasn't a big deal, just seemed a bit odd how that image linked to Postimages.org when others behaved differently.
