As we warned last week, after May 15th, Imgur is set to delete all NSFW images and any images that were uploaded there when you were not logged in. This could delete a lot images posted in your lists, blogs, About Me, and clubs if they were hosted on Imgur. Any images hosted on Imgur that are safe for work and also posted when you were logged into Imgur should be fine.

To prepare for the worst, here's four simple ways to back up any important MAL pages now! 😊





1) Use the Download All Images extension to quickly mass download all images from an important page for saving in case they are deleted:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/download-all-images/ifipmflagepipjokmbdecpmjbibjnakm?hl=en


2) Use Hacker09's script to preserve a page as a file you can call up later:
https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/465694-mal-images-backup

When you use this script on a page, it should export an HTML file you can click later to see the page as it was and also download any images from it. You could also copy any BBcode from a club menu or profile About Me into a forum post and preserve it this way with the script.

You must first install the Tampermonkey extension for your browser to use this: Chrome version * Firefox version


3) CTRL+S on any page will download it with its images. This isn't 100% reliable, but it can be useful as an additional backup for recalling how a page looks later in case you need to restore the pics.


4) If you heavily customized your list layout, post any customized list CSS you use on Pastebin and link us to the Pastebin so we can try to preserve your personal layout for you. We are trying to preserve the most valued default list layouts atm.

However I'd recommend you rely more on #1 and #2 so you make copies for yourself now.






Huge thanks to Hacker09 and Valerio_Lyndon for creating useful backup tools so quickly!!

Thanks to jery_js and V-O-I-D for helping to backup many important pages in this group!!

Do we know what counts as NSFW to them? If any anime/manga picture is NSFW for the normies on imgur, then we might just lose our whole collection here..:/ (well not me ig since I download everything and save them on USB keys but still..)

Anything the least bit lewd is NSFW under their terms

Thanks for the news.
F... Imgur. As everything on my profile is uploaded by using Imgur. Even though I still have everything on my PC, but reuploading and redoing everything is pain in the ass.

At first it does upload a bit but then for few seconds it turns to error page, like this ↴

Yes it looks fine to me


It's probably one of the imports crashing, since the list is long and has a lot of anime; can you paste the code you're using here
https://pastebin.com/
then give me the link to the pastebin you make and I'll take a look at it maybe one can be made lighter so it shouldn't crash. I can also add something to block the recaptcha

Omg, it looks fine in your screenshot! :0 The background used to not upload before for me, but it does show for others. Nice! 

Thank you so much! Here's the link https://pastebin.com/TNZfpuHd  I didn't sign up in the website, but they posted it publicly. Is it okay if i sign up and delete it?

@Hiki_Akatsuki You got multiple cover imports, thats already adding a huge amount of weight. Also some broken stuff. I've removed them all and you can try this code,

https://pastebin.com/raw/9bPpwaqk

if the layout still doesn't show you'll probably need to try another layout, or import the layout or switch to modern
