lafario Directly over the link there is a dropdown menu that's currently set to "viewer's link". You have to set that to "direct link". If "direct link" doesn't exist, you have the same problem as me... deepfriedfrenchtoast Do you need an account to get the direct link on imgbb.com?
Edit: I just saw you uploaded 2 pictures, cool to see it worked. For images that already are on the internet, you don't have to upload to imgbb. You can just press long on the picture, a menu will show up. There, you can click on show picture (at least on Samsung Internet, I don't know about other Android browsers) and copy the URL.
Edit 2: Removed the tags from this comment.

@lafario This applies to any image. However, your link is missing the file type at the end. When uploading, is there an option to switch between viewer link and direct link?

Btw, this post explains many ways of formatting your posts, including pictures and gifs.

@lafario
1. Copy ""
So if your link was "https://www.simplerockets.com/Content/img/logo.png" the result would look like this:

Then you can upload your post and the picture will be rendered. Note that you might have to reload the page for it to render correctly.
Important note:
This only works if the file type is at the end of the link (so something like .png, .jpg, .jpeg or similiar). -

@lafario Im not sure, I use imgbb.com to upload images and on there is a veiwer link and a direct link, and only the direct link type works. You can test if the link works by editing the text string into the forum.

You need to upload the pictures onto a website which hosts the images, and then grab the link for that image and paste it into this string of text  The image's file type should be at the end just like the .jpg in the example.
@lafario I did it!🥳
