Use Imgur.com

after uploading the imagine click this:



Click "Get Share Links"

Then copy the BBCode link. Which will give you this:

Code
[img]https://i.imgur.com/BTYA39e.png[/img]


Just remove the image tags and that URL will leave: https://i.imgur.com/BTYA39e.png

Which is the direct link needed to input in the avatar URL box.

Just clicking "Copy Link" won't add the image tag to it, so it won't work to load the image.

As example:
Code
[IMG]https://imgur.com/BTYA39e[/IMG]

https://imgur.com/BTYA39e

Which doesn't work.

and:
Code
[img]https://i.imgur.com/BTYA39e.png[/img]



Which does work.

imgur's copy link btn doesn't copy the direct image url, it copies the one you posted. you'll need to right click -> copy image address

they've been changing their copy link functionality code / popup windows for the past decade+ with a bunch of bullshit. especially nonsensical ui changes. they used to generate multiple style of links for various ways to embed (bbcode linking, html, etc). now even some random direct img urls will redirect to their non-direct image link. they've becoming trash recently

You will want an account. Eventually it'll be a requirement to post ANYTHING.
