So originally i had a photo working and ever since the maintenance its just that photo alone that is not loading from my bio but everything else is fine from all the pictures, not really sure what is going on. This is in the bbcode and i've tried even using different sites for copying the image code and absolutely nothing, just shows a small picture icon basically saying it cant load?


Mod Edit: Modified title for clarity and/or easier searching.
Mod Edit: Provisionally set as resolved.
Mod Edit: Actually fixed this time?

Yep, I have a club where half the images on the layout are broken after the maintenance. I was also making some posts for a feature in another club and there were certain sizes that would work and certain sizes that wouldn't work for pictures. It was really weird.

you think it will just fix up later or something? cause its really bothersome seeing just my favorite portion of the photos just gone for no reason, the thing about the size of the pictures is all of em are the exact same and yet its just ONE collage that isnt loading

No idea man, never seen anything like this before.
Someone else made the Layout for this club https://myanimelist.net/clubs.php?cid=74520 so my thought process was maybe if I create a new link myself then it would work. But unfortunately if its her link or my link the picture doesn't want to appear.

I have literally one small picture from my profile layout that's somehow glitched out, and I know many club layouts have also been destroyed. Why aren't the img bbcode tags not working properly?

Edit: The problem seems to appearing mostly with hyperlinked images. That doesn't explain their hijacked positioning though.

I decided to write a blog but none of the pictures, save the one from MAL, are working. After seeing your post, I noticed that the one in my profile isn't working either. I guess it's a glitch and will probably be fixed soon.

I do it the same way I did before, however its suddenly stopped working? Im definitely using the BBCode right as im doing it exactly like how I used to and it worked then, but now its not?

For example this gif of Yui from K-On, its not showing up?


I usually use like that link from imgur to post images on MAL forums and comments and this is the first time its not working

Yep same issue again. Things were working perfectly fine last nite and I was finally able to see my images again. But when I decided to add all the cards I've been getting, images are down again. If anyone gets a hold of those morons that caused this, I will help you dispose of the bodies.

So an update from my perspective. Basically images that were broken two days ago are working but images that were fine 2 days ago are broken now. I created 3 posts on the 19th using what images would work and now 50% of those images that were working aren't.

My blog posts are filled with broken images, likewise for some forum threads. I just assumed it was a joke until they redirected to actual images and the BBCode was entirely fine.

It must've been caused by the DDOS, maybe from cache and MAL can't keep up with the loading?
Maybe it's related to the site the images come from? The only image that is working on my club is the club banner that is hyperlinked, but that doesn't say much since other hyperlinked ones are broken elsewhere.
All of the images work on my profile, so who knows. I'm not a technician.

They're a part of MAL's main storage. That's why the logo, character photos, profile pictures, and forum sets won't break. Although Ransey's forum set broke, so idk. Maybe because they're the first and quickest to load before anything else?

I think i.ibb.co images work. Someone should check that out.

Really? I just checked your blog and yeah, none of the images have loaded, but in forums I can post gifs/images from imgur. If you can scroll up you can see a gif I posted of Yui from K-On is working and I used imgur for that.

Copying an already broken image will have no affect.

You know how if you copy an image on mal, it comes up with something like this? https://image.myanimelist.net/ui/jM0dCOQXh2kh27XZrA6u6g2V-ZAzbAtzqc8I3KtfUItFN8TLNJRaS-UGVrf3u4Aa
It's already stored into the site.
And, if I just copy the image that works on my profile...

It works.

Let me test with one of my blog images that you can see, then, and tell me if you see it:

>>You do the same, however, use the https://image.myanimelist.net link you get from my blogs and see if I can see it.

Oh, and speaking of this problem, timeouts might be correlated.

Unfortunately, not

Yes, the images have been going through some proxy since around May 2018 or so. Which is also when the flag counter broke and started to record only from Oregon. But since a few weeks or so, it doesn't even record that

No, I don't see it

We have probably two problems:

1) already existing images not properly loading, at least not for everyone. CDN problem, maybe

2) new images not uploading from specific sites

Test image:



Edit:

First try with embedding working transcoded myanimelist picture:

https://image.myanimelist.net/ui/NMhxKjGdQ21NnPG4rzwnyxPtU660dwWp0yJKZYvodjXSQRdWuXADb5I4VqR_UTTU



Second try with i.ibb.co

Yes, it's a provider (CDN/Content Delivery Network) that offers several servers around the world which store and distribute cached version of the images for faster delivery. But the question is, whether they can do anything more than just report the issue.

Btw: have you tried clearing your cache CTRL+F5 (or deleting the cache in the browser settings)?
Though, I could also try via VPN

It's not just me; it's everyone.
I've tried it on my phone, on safari, etc. All bring the same results. It's an inner MAL problem and my Google cache isn't the reason for them breaking alone.
What would a VPN do in this scenario?

Yes, but not everyone is equally affected. Otherwise, the same images wouldn't work for everyone.
Was trying to find out whether it can be solved with a local configuration. Do you know how you can just remove the cdn. from cdn.myanimelist.net and open the image in a new tab if you have troubles with profile pictures or forum avatars or similar not being displayed? If only something like that worked for the transcoded MAL images that don't load

I think it's a problem of their provider, so not necessarily their very own servers, but some third-party service

A VPN would change the routing, so basically the way through which the content gets delivered.
I've just tested it with different VPNs from different European and US-American locations and it was still the same result

The background images on my lists don't show up when I'm logged out, but they show up when I'm logged in. And it says 'waiting for images.myanimelist or something when I'm logged out.

And some images on my blogs aren't showing up. The blog feature and the ability to code our lists are the only reasons I still use this site, and it seems like those are not working properly anymore. >.<
