Sharing images from deviantart sta.sh? | Help Center

I used Deviantart's sta.sh system to share my sketches/art, but today something is different and none of the links provided seem to work. Example, this image I put in a dragon's bio some time ago and it still works. [img]https://images-wixmp-ed30a86b8c4ca887773594c2.wixmp.com/intermediary/f/0023669f-6e1f-4fb1-9e73-4993aa22fb8a/dcb6d1c-15b23828-a61c-479c-9d84-f93277f2d5ed.png[/img] (I just copy and pasted that working code from their bio) But now for the same image, if I try to retrieve a link/code from the same source on sta.sh, it gives me only a very short "share" link or a really long one if I copy the image address (right click, copy image address). Neither work with the image system here on FR. I'm pretty sure I used to copy the image address and it was fine, but now...? This might be a change with sta.sh more than FR, but does anyone know what's up with it? I just wanna put character pics in my character dragon bios ;w;

@Lumara basically deviantart changed their image hosting system completely, and now a lot of direct image links include obnoxiously long api token which a whole lot of other sites do not like. i would recommend switching to some other image hosting method for stuff you wanna put on fr (for example private server on discord or imgur etc)
