Potential Errors

If your template is correct and you give improper Imgur links, your upload status will be complete (with errors).

Opening the report, you will see the following error:

  • ‘EtsyError: “Invalid image upload”’

Getting sharable links

  1. Go to the image you want in Imgur.
  2. Right-click the image and click “Open in new tab.”
  3. Use the url from the new tab.

Example

Below is a sharable link to the image. It, however, does not indicate the image’s file type. Without a file type, Etsy will reject the image link.

Below is the link for the same image when following the above instructions. As you can see, the link includes the file type.
