AccountKiller
To remove your account, go to your account settings (http://imgur.com/account/settings)
Now click "delete my account" and follow the instructions.
Publicly visible text/images often aren't properly deleted even when you succeed in deleting an account. Try editing or deleting them manually before deleting the account itself. If you're unsure what happens to your tracks: this can be found mostly in the Terms of Service/Privacy Policy; otherwise you can always contact Imgur and ask personally. By the way, deletion requests don't necessarily mean your data will actually be deleted (e.g. due to legal obligations).
If you signed up for Imgur using a third-party login such as Facebook or Twitter, you probably want to revoke all access from Imgur. Click the icon below to find out how.
