Hello, experiencing trouble of putting out homework for Lesson 5, there is imgur post down there with screenshots of the problem and the URL, which is of course valid and works... Help please :D
The url with the error:
Honestly that's pretty strange - my only thought is that imgur may not have finished processing the images you uploaded. The invalid url error comes up when the link isn't able to generate a preview/thumbnail, though I've tried the same link you were inputting (https://imgur.com/a/NtNL9Cj) and it seems to be working currently. So my only thought is that it was temporarily not finished processing.
Can you try putting it through again?
Hello, yeah, that is pretty strange... it does not work still, sadly :(
I would also say that it does not work with any imgur urls... like i tried that one with the error images and the result is the same, too...
My immediate thoughts go to perhaps javascript being disabled in your browser, or some other browser-specific issue, as I am still not able to reproduce the bug.
In the interest of not needlessly wasting your time, I've gone ahead and submitted the link you provided previously through your account (I'm able to hijack students' accounts when I need to, to reproduce bugs and such). I checked that you had credits available and did mark it for official critique, although if that was not your intent, you'll be able to go to the submission here and cancel it if you wish.
It did submit fine on my end though, so I'm still left at something of a loss as to why it was rejecting it for you, if it's not a browser-specific problem.
Oh! I see, thanks for the care to post it!
I never tried another browser for some reason. All the good choices seem inevitable afterwards, but kinda could not think about it that day! Tried everything from reposting on imgur to posting it there without an account, nothing worked.
Although when I put a link to Google.com it actually generated a preview there for it, but i kinda did not submit that time thinking it was inappropriate to do so with the main and only link in the description...
Strange things happen! Thank you very much for your help and support!
Right from when students hit the 50% rule early on in Lesson 0, they ask the same question - "What am I supposed to draw?"
It's not magic. We're made to think that when someone just whips off interesting things to draw, that they're gifted in a way that we are not. The problem isn't that we don't have ideas - it's that the ideas we have are so vague, they feel like nothing at all. In this course, we're going to look at how we can explore, pursue, and develop those fuzzy notions into something more concrete.
