Quick question. The links in my profile work fine but people are telling me they are getting the 403 message forbidden link why would that be?
 
i don't see any links in your profile??
but i can see all the pics/gifs in your request thread? so if people can't, maybe it's a browser issue? or the wifi?
 
ahh! well, glad it worked out!
 
Sometimes web pages prevent hotlinking by restricting access to clients who have accessed the image through the website itself, giving 403 (Forbidden) to anyone who tries to access the image without visiting the website where it's hosted. It might eventually start giving 403 to you as well, if you wait long enough and/or clear your cache.
 
I had people yell at me for doing that.

Host your own stuff ffs >: (
 
If you're trying to host images, you can use postimages.org to host them for free. Like Caramel and Vek said, most sites don't want to have to retain your media and host it long-term unless they gain revenue from it.
