Images on imgur

Since imgur isn't allowing remote linking to images anymore, are you planning on officially moving the images to a new location or will everyone using this plugin have to find their own image hosting adn edit the config?

Image failed to download! Error: HTTP/1.1 429 Too Many Requests - Image Name: https://i.imgur.com/vI6LwCZ.png_0 - Image URL: https://i.imgur.com/vI6LwCZ.png​;

Not sure what to do, but Imgur & majority of other sites have stopped allowing me to share my image links.

( I always easily hit the max rates ( 12,500 requests per day on my account ) for Imgur & Twitter moved to a paid API system as well now.. etc )

This mainly is happening because of a design flaw with ImageLibrary.

Currently, Image Library always re-caches the images every time it is reloaded or the server reboots, needlessly...

( Despite the image link itself never actually changing.. & the server already having a cached copy still stored in the sv file.. )

Because of this flaw with the image library plugin and because of how many users I have...

I cannot find any site/service ( with a high enough calls-per-day ) that will let me host my images... ( without forking out a lot of money each month )

This is due to the huge number of servers running GUIShop  ( or any of my other works ) which requires ImageLibrary thus needlessly calling the Image URL's despite the majority of users already having it cached. 

I will most likely have to write my own Image-Library plugin that doesn't have all the design flaws with caching images and whatnot. 

( Ideally ) Image library should only re-cache the images to the sv file if it's a force-wipe or the sv file gets deleted or a plugin calls it to update to a new URL explicitly.



Merged post

This is the email I got from Twitter stating they've disconnected me as well this month. Even tho I only had the 1..f1c7jsG92BI2suC.png

What about the images being hosted locally, on the game server? Is there a way for the plugin to do that?

That would be something ImageLibrary itself would have to do/support. 

All guishop does is call the image library plugin, and it handles all the image stuff. 

I have no control over what it does / can do.
