OC. It took me much longer to make this than I'm willing to admit.
FP Edit: Since most of you are already doing this, go ahead and post your Imgur secrets or questions in the comments!

My secret is I have just as much anxiety interacting on this website as I do in rl.
jazzhead
I always check out lady's profiles and get thrilled when I find a selfie pic. Then I write a really friendly and non-sexual message... 1/2

jscuster
Actually you can't always tell. Sometimes reddit users repost links to things that died in usersub. Traffic can drag it to FP.

that happened to me and all of a sudden my name was on the post.

RedrevolverKat
I too do not understand how imgur and reddit are linked... I do not understand in the slightest.
OrganFreeman
I think Imgur was originally created to benefit image sharing on reddit but sort of became its own community by accident.
pixarpizza
That makes sense, I guess.
RedrevolverKat
How helpful. Thank you. So if you post something to reddit it always also posts to im? Vice versa too?
MadDias
Not always, most are just linked, like imgur is just an imagehoster. and famous reddit things automatically come to frontpage. ->
MadDias
you can recognize them, they are all posted without imgur username. that's all i know ^^

Every time I say it out loud, I say both ehm-gur and image-ur. I cannot really accept the non phonetic image-ur.

I pronounce it mmm-grrr, but then again, I'm a tiger.

It's pronounced gif.

They say the G sounds like a J, just like in "gif."

"imajur"
rachbadachel
but jif? I have always said gif :( I also pronouced it Her-me-own (Hermione)
whatkindofdrugsarewetesting
Supposedly you pronounce it "image-ur" but I say "eem-gur "in my head because I do what I want.
PiccPicceringtonVonChesterburgElderberryTheThirdEsquire
Bill Nye supports you.
LarvaLamp
It's been scientifically proven.
thiscannotpossiblygowrong
It's easy! Just pronounce it as Imgur.
fightlikeabrave
OK I read most of this replies differently and I am no closer to finding the answer.
felidori
Asked a mate and he called it "image-er", which sounded better than my attempt of "im-guur"

OlanRogersIsMySpiritAnimal
Uh, sure. Let's go with that.
airandfingers
If you remember which @warnerbros post (check out their submissions), you can go downvote it, but it's promoted so it doesn't really matter.
airandfingers
@sarah is Imgur's Director of Community. Among other things, she speaks for Imgur staff when changes or announcements are being made.
airandfingers
Reddit is a community like Imgur, but the posts are links. If a Reddit post is a link to Imgur, and it's popular, it shows up on Imgur FP.
airandfingers
How long did it take you to catch up on 5 weeks' worth of Imgur front page?
OlanRogersIsMySpiritAnimal
...several hours
OlanRogersIsMySpiritAnimal
in reality, it wasn't quite five weeks - but if you know the scene these shots are from, he says five weeks.
airandfingers
If you remember your previous username and you had it linked to your email, you could just reset your password.
OlanRogersIsMySpiritAnimal
Thanks for all the help friend!

Switch to the user sub where it says newest or most popular. It is a bit depressing though :/
JuliaKreature
Ok so there's user sub where when you post a new picture or gif it goes there and people hopefully upvote it enough to go to FP. You can
