Cant post any photos or files

[Jannes]

Would post a picture what I mean but thats obviously not possible right now. Below the text chart, next to the box "Insert other media" on the left the sign with the paperclip doesnt appear after loading. So its not possible to click on it to attatch photos or files. Its also not possible to just drag them in. 

Has anyone encountered the same problem?

If you're on Windows, download shareX and set it up to connect to an imgur account, and then simply take a screenshot and paste in the url, and the forum will automatically replace your url with an image, like this: 

No need to worry about uploading files to Leo's server.

Definitely Leo needs to fix this problem. I can't upload any images onto this site without the upload failing.

@Husseinisdoingfine Try following @Joshe's advice.

The site's performance has been inconsistent for a while now.

Give it another try, and make sure your account hasn't exceeded the maximum upload quota.

I am on Mac so I cant use shareX. I got Kap instead and creating links work. But when I put them on the forum, they dont create a picture of a gif.

You're trying to paste a file with the file protocol (file:///) but you should be pasting a URL like "http://" or "https://"

Not super familiar with Mac, but I think FlameShot has the automatic upload to imgur, but I'm not sure if it can capture animated GIFs. Basically, you're looking for a way to host the image somewhere online so you can share its location. Maybe look into Raycast. 

ShareX is nice because I just hit a hotkey to capture the screen region I want, and I have it configured so that it automatically uploads to imgur and copies the URL to my clipboard so I can simply paste it in. The whole process takes me like like 5 seconds. Ideally, you'd look for something like that. Maybe use AI to research your options on Mac.
