does that BBcode conversion thing work correctly?
yes, you just aren't posting the right URL
a good test is to paste the URL you are trying to post on an Incognito window and if it just shows the image, it should work

like this:
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/b/bb/The_The_-_Soul_Mining_CD_album_cover.jpg/220px-The_The_-_Soul_Mining_CD_album_cover.jpg
you are posting a link to the page the image is on, not the image itself

If you're using Chrome, if you right click on the image, there should be an option "Open image in new tab". Click that, then in the new tab, copy the URL

yes but how do you wrap the img tags? regular < > doesn't work, and neither, apparently, does the [ ].
― akm, Friday, 25 September 2020 22:05 (three years ago) link
[ ] should work, if you're linking to the right thing
Sometimes I test here first: photobucket direct image link test

yeah I think the issue with some images (like discogs hosted ones) is they have all kinds of weird parameters in them etc because they're likely being transformed by the site's CDN.

The ones I've been posting here are actually from discogs; I didn't think they would work b/c the URLs are so funky, but they do...

You guys know about the "Show Formatting Help" button below the reply box, right?
I can't copy and paste the text here because the tags will disappear and nothing will be any more clear lol.
