Problem with imgur!

My conspiracy theory:

The new owner's are trying to slowly shut down the forum, but quick shut down will cause too much anger so they're trying to slowly kill the place without anyone noticing. They're starting by breaking the most popular thread's and features.

They requested IMGUR to block OCUK.

Well that sucks! :(

The majority of my review images (which is A LOT) are on imgur and are posted here and I really CBA signing up to a new account somewhere else to rehost them all and to then edit my posts replacing the links :(

Hope something gets sorted out soon.
 
People asking how to get the referer working in Chrome, here's a screenshot of my settings (which seem to be working fine):

So it's a block all 'to' filter for imgur.com. Just entering 'imgur.com' without the 'http://' apparently removes the requirement to enter a wildcard * and thereby also filters all subdomains.

This is the first time I've even heard of a referer, so some clever people might have better ways to set it up, but what I can tell you is that my imgur-hosted sig is now displaying.

Edit - derp

Maybe host the image on something other that imgur so people can see it in the thread itself. :p
