I tried uploading images by inputting the url directly from furaffinity, but it refuses to load a preview or upload. I had to save the image locally and upload from my device.
This didn’t happen to me the last time I did so about 20 days ago. Is anyone else experiencing this? Is it related to furaffinity’s use of cloudflare?
It’s on fa’s end there’s something going on with the site I believe.
I noticed this just earlier, trying to upload from FA results in a 403 Forbidden response. It seems FA is now preventing direct image access, since if I try to go to
I get a 403 error, but if I go to
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/54719427/
and click Download for that same link, it works fine. Any direct image links for images in my browser's cache will work, but others won't if I don't go through the source page first.
I believe this was an old & known issue? See topic #17341.
I think it was an issue that eventually got fixed after a while, but I do also occasionally still get this error from time to time when clicking on direct image links without going through the submission page prior.
FA has turned up their Cloudflare checks within the past couple days so maybe that's causing the issue.
