I've done a pretty alright run on http://www.speedrun.com/splatoon2/Lips_for_Days_Boss3, however I don't have a video for the run. The rules say that if it's not 1st it is accepted, how do I enter with only the screenshot of the time?

You may create and submit a link of the available screenshot through the video link section of the submission page. Insert the direct link to the provided screenshot instead of a video link as an alternative.

I've tried that, but the submission isn't accepted since it isn't a video link.

That is very strange...

To confirm, your screenshot has been uploaded in a way, correct? In order to obtain the link?

I've tried this recently with a different game and it said "A photo is not a video." I would think that is what he is talking about.

I have the image link, yes. It says exactly what conmangamer22 is mentioning.

Hmmm...

I am unsure about this type of situation, and with myself not being an actual moderator, I am unable to advise you further.

I'm sorry!

No problem, I'll just work on a video then ;u;"

Thanks!

I assume you're using an imgur link, that's the problem, if you upload the image to your Google drive and use that as a link then it will work fine. The website only notices that imgur links are not video links, and it's just to do with how the entire site is formatted since it does that check for every game even if screenshots are allowed. Just use a drive link or do what I use to do and put the imgur link in the description or split ID section and leave a single dot in the video link. Either or those have worked for me in the past. But I reccomend just switching over to using Google drive to upload your runs.
