Imgur screenshots blocked in UK

[Aberdeen]

Probably the most popular screenshot upload site has been blocked in the UK thanks to the government's continued war against joy.

 

If you want to...

Recover your old screenshots and other uploads from Imgur

You can submit a data request from Imgur's Help Centre via a ticket.

 

View embedded screenshots from Imgur

Add ProtonVPN's extension to your browser and activate a free account.

The Imgur site itself will still refuse to load via most VPNs.

Thanks to @GhostOfProtocol for the tip.

 

Continue to use Imgur for your screenshots

You'll probably need a paid VPN, or at least one that isn't detected by the site's proxy block.

Alternatively, use a different service like imgBB.

If anyone is using a standalone VPN (not a browser extension or a built into browser VPN), it's worth noting that whilst you don't need VPN permission for the forums you will need it in game. Make sure to either turn the VPN off or go and apply for VPN permission before using one.

im using opera (has a free vpn built in) - screenshots galore & no need for fucking about with a VPN for SA-MP, there are many other available browsers with the same feature I'd imagine.. but yea crisis averted. the uk sucks

@GhostOfProtocolaka ThirdWorldProtocol.... what did you let UK turn in to?

But as said above, best option is to use a browser like Opera or any other kinds. If again you hate it and rather use a VPN to still access it through Chrome or whatever, do as Ghost said, apply for VPN permission. You might forget to turn it off, log into SAMP and then you wont log back in 😉
