Hello Pat,
Just to clarify, I didn't actually send you any instructions for uploading photos on Imgur. I've never used it myself, and hadn't actually even heard of it until Ed mentioned last week. I don't know how you use Imgur, I'm afraid.
As Ed suggested, please just paste the relevant photo URL that Imgur has given you directly into a forum reply, and perhaps then somebody will be able to see what the issue is with that URL. (For example, perhaps it's a URL that points to a Web page, rather than an image file directly, or perhaps the image isn't set to be publicly-visible in Imgur, if applicable.)

Sorry to hear you're finding it so difficult. Certainly hosting images has some costs, and moving the forum to a new platform that has that kind of functionality natively (paperclip-type-uploads, automatic image resizing, etc.) would potentially also involve a certain amount of work/costs. I will pass your suggestion on to Brett.
