From the Friday protest in front of Mike Flood's (repug NE. ) office in Lincoln. Didn't get his name but his generation fought like hell for Democracy in the USA.

9. DU checks end of links for ".jpg", ".jpeg", ".gif", ".png" & displays those as images. Make sure your link ends in one.n

7. You are right, except both links are URL. You mean they posted image page URL and you posted image URL

One is the page that contains the image and the other is the actual image.

So many sacrifices made, so much blood lost so lying, criminal scum can roam free to spread misery.

6. I got a webp link, so I saved and converted it to jpeg.

No go:

Copy the image link below if anyone has problems. I don't understand imgur's linking methods.

Good post.

It's easy on a computer, but I was on the phone, and the process for converting a webp to jpeg is INSANE.

So am I, so we're even.

I hope you figure out the imgur business.

I find postimages.org the easiest to use for DU.

Keep on posting!

13. imgur takes you to an image page and that has the image. Put image link rather than the image page link

You used a different server, ibb.co, for your image. You added a .webp to the original link and that doesn't work.

I've added a space to each of this links to break them so you all can see the links. You could copy-paste these to your browser address bar and remove the space and see the image when you press Enter.

imgur image page: h ttps://i.imgur.com/Vdeh1Yp

Image: h ttps://i.imgur.com/Vdeh1Yp.jpeg
(note how ".jpeg" is added to the link)

Your image: h ttps://i.ibb.co/8LW29DNL/IMG-1729.jpg

19. It's a riot on an iphone.

I copied the image from imgur and it was a webp.

Here's the phone procedure (No kidding)

Save the image to the camera roll.

Either by opening the photo or holding your finger down, share -- SAVE TO FILES

Go to the files app. Find the photo.

Hold your finger down (do not click) and select quick actions --- convert image
Convert to jpeg.
Saves a jpeg copy.

With that copy, open and share -- save (goes to camera roll) You can also hold finger down and share -- save

Go back to the camera roll, there it is.

Upload and share.


I probably have an app that converts images, but can't recommend that to anyone, who might not have the app.
Apple, you are bonkers at times.

On the computer, just right-click or control-click and select quick actions -- convert.

(or use preview app, export as ... )

I do spend a bunch of time with GIMP, creating those FAFOS and F U's.
