[tutorial] how to update imgur urls

sinewif you've used imgur as an image host for a while, there's a chance some of the links are broken, and the images aren't displaying. this tutorial will show you how to quickly update the codes so images display again
this tutorial works best on pc, not on mobile. there may be a way to achieve something similar on mobile, but i don't personally know it. (please share if you do!)
first, verify that the coding needs to be replaced by checking what the urls are displaying as. if they're "http://imgur.com" or "https://imgur.com" urls, they need to be replaced
copy and paste the relevant coding coding in a block, not the individual images. (for example, i just completely copied and pasted all of the casual html text from an icon post on this very journal)
from there, paste it into a word editor. i'm a windows pc user, so i use notepad
in the navigation bar of your program of choice, click on edit > replace. (the exact location and naming may vary from program to program, but a "replace" function should be available in every word editor)
a new box will pop up with several options
in the "find" field, paste this:
http://imgur.com
in the "replace" field, paste this:
https://i.imgur.com
to be thorough, repeat the process
in the "find" field, paste this:
https://imgur.com
the "replace" field should have kept the new url, but if necessary just copy the url above again
select "replace all"
copy the entire code block from the text editor, and paste it back where you originally copied from. make sure to replace the original text
et voila! your images should now display

[tutorial] mass edit icon credits
Oct. 19th, 2023 06:09 pmsinewhere's a scenario probably every journal user has experienced: you find an icon community, and you save a lot of icons. then you're so caught up in the euphoria of finding neat icons that you forget that icon crediting exists. it's not the worst thing in the world, especially if you're copying and pasting, but it's also also not fun
well, the beautiful wastintime on insanejournal created a script to make this process less tedious!
they have instructions to get it installed, so i won't go over that, but i will show you how it works

Aug. 2nd, 2015 11:06 pmsinew- this is actually a few years old but i figured i'd post the code since it was otherwise sitting in a .txt file on my hard drive
- this was coded with tcgs (specifically colors) in mind
- if you'd like to repurpose and/or tweak it, that's totally fine
- it's fairly large, so i don't recommend using it on journals that have custom comments pages that aren't as wide as the table
