Image posting not working

Trying to use the image tags with the URL https://imgur.com/6rdbm3O

Results in the preview error

"It was not possible to determine the dimensions of the image. Please verify that the URL you entered is correct."

Maybe something I'm doing wrong? The image is 1024x768 pixels

Please see my reply on your earlier thread, which should hopefully help -

For completeness, and taking account of the fact that the TEST board will get wiped from time to time, but this one won't, then some more detailed instructions for posting images can be found on the link below -

Thanks... I had to manually add the .jpg extension to the URL inside the image tag. Imgur copy button didn't do that.

Don't use copy, use "..." then "Get share links" then "Copy Link" on the "BBCode (Forums)" line.
