THE ISSUE IS FIXED
Hey guys, wanted to make this thread to quickly fill you in on why a lot of the threads in this area are suddenly without screenshots when they had them previously, or when they tried to add new ones. The problem centers around the prominent image hosting site, Imgur, updating their Terms of Service. For the time being, while staff contacts the support team at Imgur, most threads that relied on Imgur as their image hosting service for their screenshots have their images removed (not by us!), despite the content actually still existing in the post.
Threadmakers, you are still able to retrieve the links of each of your 'removed' images by editing your thread and getting the links through there. While we look for some sort of resolution, I would recommend swapping to a different image hosting site for the time being. I can't guarantee this issue with Imgur will be fixed (and PC likely won't be the only place affected by their new policies) - so swapping is very much recommended.
Anyways, I'm just leaving this thread here open if any of you have any questions or even want to recommend others to a different image hosting site! Huge apologies for such a massive inconvenience
