Not sure what client you are on but there are some problems with loading images on some clients because of CORS issues (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CORS). Astral has this problem I think, isn't that correct #[2] ?

yep this is known issue. trying to find time to figure out how to stand up a proxy to fix this 😂😭

Got it! Thanks! Tried nostr.rocks which seems to work 😁

You'll have the same issue if you try to use a NIP-05 identifier on a web server because of CORS :(

yes, unfortunately. however for nip05 its in the spec that it should be served with cors headers.

one hack that #[5] thought of was just putting it in your github 😂 #[6]

Yea I’m also using GitHub pages. Remember guys to add include .well-known to your config.toml otherwise gh pages won’t serve it

If you don't mind giving a GitHub newbie a bit more of a pointer, I created my first repo, added a nostr.json file, but not sure where to put config.toml or what the config file should look like. https://github.com/isplotchy/hello-world

And assuming this works fine I'd probably not care about having a base-64 encoded image as my pfp and just upload my avatar to GH as well.
