Title: Imgur doesn’t allow guns?
Post by: Drewzer17 on January 20, 2024, 08:05:35 PM
I tried to upload a photo to Imgur to post on here and it said permission denied, and when I read their policy, it said no firearms. Is this no longer working? Are there any alternatives?

I don't know. Try www.flickr.com

It is working for me.
Just downloaded this internet pic to imgur and posted it below

Odd, I have LOTS of gun pictures on Imgur...

Stupid question - is your account verified, and set to allow "mature" content?

This was the only thing I fund regarding firearms in their TOS;

Quote
Content depicting, condoning, making light of, or advocating illegal activity or violence will not be tolerated. This may include content containing:

child abuse and exploitation (includes photo, video, print, artwork)
rape and domestic abuse
sales of illegal substances or products requiring permits and/or licenses including pharmaceuticals, narcotics, pets, or firearms...
Did the picture look like an advertisement? Which is also odd, considering I have this one on Imgur...

I'm just wondering if it's a recent change. Guess I'll find out next time I try to load a pic.

I’ve been having trouble uploading pics to Imgur too. Maybe that’s why.

That is REALLY weird - I literally just uploaded these two pictures two minutes ago, right after reading your post, no problem whatsoever. Again, are you set for the weirdly named setting of mature content?

This is it. It thinks you're under 18 and therefore can't handle naked women or firearms.
