Resistance Is Not Futile
We now have Catbox embedding on FCW.

Thus far we have tested it with: PNGs, JPGs, GIFs, and, MP4s (sound and no sound)

For any of these, you can simply copy and paste the catbox URL and it will auto-embed (much like how copying and pasting a YouTube or Twitter/X link auto-embeds already on the forum)

Alternatively, if you press upload image & chose the "by URL" option (or upload media and enter "media URL" for videos) and copy/paste the URL there instead (not sure why you would want to, it's an extra step or two, but you could if you really wanted to)

Some examples:

A note about Catbox:

Something to keep in mind, Catbox seems to remove files from their servers after some period of time.

I've went back to old catbox URLs from 1-3 years ago and they were no longer available.

Point being, it's still good to keep an offline copy even if its on Catbox.
