| Aug 3, 2015 at 19:36 | comment | added | HackerKarma | @Ooker. No, I am not targeting you either. The official ♦ mod answer and upvotes, as far as my answer goes, and in general. How many of those upvoters do you think read my answer, comments, conversation with Marc. If they did then why am I left with 2 votes (excluding your's). That's why that joke but [status-completed] was my takeaway. But, since I worked so hard for this answer, I felt little sad to see your un-acceptance. And, that was it, nothing against you. You're fine. Comments are getting lengthy so its my last comment. | |
| Aug 3, 2015 at 19:11 | comment | added | Ooker | @HackerKarma no, I'm not the one who accept everything the diamonds say without thinking. It's just I have thought that you two have made a consensus, and that's written in his answer. I have thought your joke under his comment is the evidence for that. Sorry for making you feel unfair. | |
| Aug 3, 2015 at 18:26 | comment | added | HackerKarma | No problem. It's happens. At least you went back and read the chat. But, there are some users, who don't even do that. They just see the official ♦ mod answer and upvote. Do you see how much research it took to answer right. I worked hard for this debugging, reading imgur API pages and chatting with Marc. It was almost 2 hours of work. And Marc did confirmed it by saying "To confirm: looks like I am wrong and this is our fault; we should be able to fix it soon". | |

| Aug 3, 2015 at 18:13 | comment | added | Ooker | @HackerKarma oh, I thought that you are joking. Sorry about that. Anyway, I have already read your chat and I don't know a thing. I thought that Marc's answer is the final consensus so that's why I accept that. I have moved the accept tick. | |
| Aug 3, 2015 at 18:02 | comment | added | HackerKarma | @Ooker Please read my chat conversation with Marc... and Marc is actually giving [status-completed] reason i.e. the bug that caused this. Otherwise every [status-completed] message by SE team will be treated as a "official" answer. Our findings will be useless. Anyway, you're OP and you have right to select the right answer. I will have to live with it. | |
| Aug 3, 2015 at 17:54 | comment | added | Ooker | @HackerKarma erm, idk. Marc's answer has more jargon than yours XD | |
| Aug 3, 2015 at 17:41 | comment | added | HackerKarma | @Ooker what made you think of un-accepting my answer | |

| Aug 3, 2015 at 15:36 | comment | added | HackerKarma | @MarcGravell do you have moment to chat? Comments warnings are coming to me | |
| Aug 3, 2015 at 15:35 | comment | added | HackerKarma | @MarcGravell I just posted another comment. Hope that is clear. Oh no no, I don't expect to dump that data either. Thanks for the email. I don't work for imgur but they do have a support for API and have submitted the case. Lets' see what their support team says. I will forward it you | |
| Aug 3, 2015 at 15:32 | comment | added | Marc Gravell | @HackerKarma some of that is there - not the base-64, but I have a hunch... | |
| Aug 3, 2015 at 15:30 | comment | added | HackerKarma | @MarcGravell Appreciated. If that's what imgur sending then they must be striping out all other data like "parameters:, request:, type:, method:, success:.... etc. I think we have to look into the "CONFIG" options that API gets.... base64 encoding ... | |

@HackerKarma your comment isn't clear, but if you work for imgur ("we need to look into", etc), feel free to ping me at [email protected], and we can talk more - but I'm not going to dump the raw http (including keys, etc) here ;p

@HackerKarma <error><message>Image format not supported, or image is corrupt.</message>...; I'm checking something, though
|

| Aug 3, 2015 at 15:10 | comment | added | HackerKarma | @MarcGravell I agree the response is generic... i know you guys are super busy but please look into the response header .... like I said in the above comment | |
| Aug 3, 2015 at 15:09 | comment | added | Marc Gravell | @Ooker I'll take another look | |
| Aug 3, 2015 at 15:09 | comment | added | HackerKarma | @Ooker SE's imgur interface from where the API sends the data to imgur... I would like to see what the endpoint respone looks like... we need to look into base64 + url encoding which is causing the wrong interpretation of the final url | |
| Aug 3, 2015 at 15:05 | comment | added | Ooker | @MarcGravell "the issue seems to be on the SE's imgur interface where some kinda URL validation (and/or filename check) is happening before the image upload" - quoted HackerKarma below | |
| Aug 3, 2015 at 14:50 | comment | added | Shadow Wizard | Agree with @Marc that this probably isn't worth spending much time on, unless we'll see this happening more. | |
| Aug 3, 2015 at 14:39 | comment | added | Marc Gravell | That error happens inside imgur; as such, I can't tell you what specifically it doesn't like (the error message is fairly generic) - as @ShadowWizard notes: presumably there is an encoding option in use that imgur doesn't like. Options: 1) imgur change their API to allow the format; 2) you re-save the file to tweak the encoding; 2 seems like a more timely fix | |

| Aug 3, 2015 at 9:24 | comment | added | Patrick Hofman | It still seems a regular JPG to me. @ShadowWizard | |
| Aug 3, 2015 at 9:23 | comment | added | Shadow Wizard | Looks like it was created by some fancy software, in the raw response I see "Adobe Photoshop CS3 Windows", and this format is simply not supported by imgur, which tries to analyze the picture. | |
