Images taken from newspapers often contain several IDs, often in form of 128-bit UUIDs. These image-links typically doesn't fit the buffer given to the forum IMG keyword and are truncated in a weird way.

Please increase the buffer to at least 256 chars

Ex: Here's a link to a picture in Aftonbladet's entertainment pages
h**ps://imgs.aftonbladet-cdn.se/v2/images/b439bbcc-8ffd-47cf-a0e5-45d729d5140e ?
fit=crop&h=685&w=900 &s = 7e06ae5fa45b42aad59b07e1018270b2 d3a04bdc

Here's the failing IMG result:

The images can be be found on this article:

Hm, while trying to write this post weird things happen. It seems it's actually the link buffer which is failing, either interpretation or lack of space?

I'll update it if I'll manage to find where to change that option :D

If not, it will have to wait until our tech team is back

You could always save the image to your hard drive and upload it yourself to one of the image hosting websites available. Not every image URL is embed-able on a forum and it's more to do with the way Aftonbladet's image URLs are set up, rather than the forum's coding.
