Bug description

  1. Go to: https://hardforum.com/threads/windas-white-point-balance-guide-for-sony-trinitron-crts.1830788/post-1041045250 and see this post has two attached TinyPic links.
  2. Right click on the first image link - Unable to search wayback machine for image link (only entire forum page)
  3. Right click on first tinypic image link, select open image in new tab
  4. Right click on server error page to then search wayback machine for the tinypic image, image displays as expected in a new tab
  5. Right click second image and repeat steps above - Incorrect archive image is retried (tinypic sorry image not available message instead of earlier archive of correct image)

Expected behavior: Right click on TInyPic URL allows searching in Wayback Machine without having to open in new tab first. Step 5 I'm not sure if there is a fix for that to make sure the default tinypic error message isn't the archive thats retrieved.

Thanks!

Hi @Shogun38, I've also faced the problem of browsing old forums with lots of TinyPic image attachments, and I came up with a different solution. I use the Redirector extension with the following rule, which automatically loads embedded TinyPic images from the first available Wayback capture:

Pattern type: Regular Expression
Include pattern: .*(http://.*?.tinypic.com/.*)
Redirect to: https://web.archive.org/web/1im_/$1
Apply to: Images
