Is anyone having problems uploading to Imgur? I haven't been able to get anything up there for a good few weeks now. The green upload progress bar just goes from one end to the other then starts again.
Granted, I'm uploading high res screenshots but I'd expect it to tell me if it was too big.

I'm using Firefox 50 and have disabled all the add-ons so I'm at a loss :?

I found that 'Drag n drop' stopped working, so I have to use browse to get it to do anything

Thanks Xebeth, good suggestion. Just tried it to no avail; it posted but there was no picture. *sigh*.
I'll try Edge. Or I might just give up and fly some spaceships 8-)

I'll give that a go but I wanted to avoid compression. I'll mayeb find a program where I can choose the amount.

I just uploaded some E-D screenshots with no problems. Just did drag and drop onto the Imgur page. I use SSC to convert my screenshots to png files, then upload 'em.

Imgur.com like your tube would only compres before storing displaying anyways.

And you do realise you are taking a high resolution, no compression image of a highly compressed game?

It's a bit like converting an old 64kpbs mp3 to flac, and say you enjoy lossless listening.
Save yourself the upload bandwidth and convert yourself.

Also a high resolution snap in bmp is again least a few hundred MB, think those I took Ultra wide was nearly pushing a gig per shot.
