Yes, that part of the Card Maker isn't working well. In case you're accesing YCM through a desktop computer (like I do), here's a method: Upload your image to an image hosting site such as imgur, (or use Facebook, if you don't care your picture loweing it's quality a bit. Once you have done that, right click over the image and click "Open Image in a New Tab". Next, go to that tab and copy the URL at the top of the page. Lastly, paste that URL at "Picture URL" at the Card Maker and click Generate. Your image should be uploaded that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmano Posted April 19, 2020 Report Share Posted April 19, 2020 So the function that gives this page it's name isn't working properly? LOL. Will it be fixed any time soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to be 100% sure, let's try again. First, click the image you found there on Pixabay. Once it's become bigger, right click OVER it and click the option "Open Image on a New Tab". Now move to the new tab, and select the WHOLE URL, including the .jpg or .png. Copy it with Ctrl + C. Now on the Card Maker, click on Picture URL, paste the URL with Ctrl + V, and generate. It should work (I just did it again). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
