    Mine stopped working as well last week. I use the Imgur app on my phone. I press and hold on the image and select "Copy Post Link". Been doing it for years, now I just get the following below:

    [​IMG]

    Here's the link I added:

    https://imgur.com/a/HE75KTX

    I read @jmdrpi 's fix but wasn't sure which part to delete with that link and add .jpg.

    I'm having no luck posting from my phone the last few days, but as far as I know, the ones that were already posted are fine.

    I exclusively post images from my phone. I noticed that if you select “copy post link”, that will be the link to the post itself and not the image. I then click on the image to open it on its own and then select the link - I believe it says “post link”. That one will be to the image (look for the “x” on the top right) on its own and will have the .jpg extension.

    Delete everything between "a" and "#" inclusive and append ".jpg" to the file name:

    I still haven't seen any response to my imgur review on PlayStore.

    That's exactly what *used* to work for me. Now none of them give me that .jpg link. Most annoying.

    Haven’t tried this specifically, a few variants that failed so let me check this one out. Thanks!

    Hmmm, my phone requires a bit different process, but it does work.
    Good to know and really annoying at the same time.

    Ah, now I see - I didn’t delete the /gallery/ part the first time. Thanks! And thanks @dcotom for figuring out what to delete and add to that url to make it work.

    this is interesting- I hadn’t seen this before until the last update (that I did now). Disappointing.

    Thanks to all for sharing!

    Ive been having same problems from phone. Didnt share a bunch of beers I drank in Calgary last week as I could nt get photos shared of my beverages.
    Deleting the "a" thru "#" and adding .jpeg appears to fix my issues.
    Thanks @Jaycase @jmdrpi and @dcotom !

    @jmdrpi we speak your name!

    And, while it's an extra step, I'm used to it now & it only takes a few extra seconds. Annoying, but not so annoying that I'll stop posting.

    Cheers!
