Ah ok thanks, Altough mine doesn't show the black box but still similar

If it's black or an icon for the filetype doesn't appear, then the upload likely failed. Hit the trash and just try to upload again.

Hmmm... Do you use Noscript or anything? I would check your scripting settings (RGT and jquery are the only two you need). Or try restarting the browser and/or computer and trying again.

If that doesn't work, try a portable version of another browser....

Not sure after that.

Yea, I have encountered that, but it is when directly inserting a picture (it DOES work after a few tries which is weird).

Have you tried first attaching it, THEN inserting it into the message body? That seems to be more reliable.

Didn't think of that but I will try it

Do you use CanvasBlocker or something similar?

That's what worked for me, good luck :) I'm not on mobile though, but I think that is your issue. I don't know the technical side, but I think it throws an error when trying to directly insert because it needs to insert and attach at the same time, so it might be trying to reference something not "fully" uploaded? I guess it depends on your device, connection speed etc. so sometimes it works? But attaching first fixed it for me and seems to solve it for me so far >_> Here's hoping *crossed fingers*

I had a momentary glitch earlier. Forcing a full reload (also clearing cache would work) fixed it. Guessing some scripts got updated in the background.

Can confirm it's happening on Brave browser with shield down, even copy paste images.

This happens to me in the users style settings. I can't set a background image.

This happens to me in the users style settings. I can't set a background image.

So it's not just me. It just says 'Please choose a valid color'. I wonder if there's something with how it's formatted. It still wants a color code instead of the URL.

And I have been seeing image upload issues, but it's not enough for it to have made me think it was on the site's end. I thought it was just because I was trying to upload files that were 'too large', and have been downsizing things before I post them. Could be confirmation bias, maybe that's not the problem at all.

Addendum; I'm on Firefox if that matters.

That's a different error:
