Forum images are dead

OciXCrom · **Author**

Something happened yesterday and most of the image links died.

Example - https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=308540

I use the same images in all of my threads. All of them are from "raw.githubusercontent.com" which displays images directly from Github. They work in other forums at the moment, but not here.
Here's another example from some other website - https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=309896

Looks like uploading new images doesn't work either. Here's an example from "imgur.com":

(you probably won't see the image)

Although old "imgur.com" links work - https://forums.alliedmods.net/forumdisplay.php?f=26

It's probably the image proxy the forum uses.

HTML Code:

<a class="proxied-img-link" href="https://i.imgur.com/ZCyWjcr.png" rel="nofollow noopener">

I have experienced it several times.
We want you to repair if we can.

Exactly. Images are handled client-side in your browser, the only issue here is that the AM server is failing to bring the image in your browser. Afaik (might be wrong), this happens because the web-server is being backup-ed daily.
