Yes; pushed updates earlier but thought I didn’t install them until after posting my thread. Not sure the cause. Still, this has happened before here and I suspect it’s a site issue. Time will tell. 
Seems to work for me latest firefox on linux. Try hard refreshing the forum, shift + reload in firefox

I had exactly that problem yesterday. Same version of Windows and Firefox. I’m at a temporary location with lousy internet, and guessed that was the issue.
EDIT: I’ve just tried again, with Firefox and up-to-date Microsoft Edge: Version 120.0.2210.61 (Official build) (64-bit). Same error message.
My JPG file is 8296 bytes.
Shift+F5 brings up developer tools in Firefox. If that’s where I’m supposed to be, I’m not finding an option for refresh. I’ve cleared cache (but not passwords, etc.), Shift+launch, etc.
No change, still can’t load images.
This is Windows, after all, so let me reboot and try again … *sigh*
Shift + click the reload icon, or press Ctrl + Shift + R.
Actions:
- Cleared all cache (but not cookies / credentials) on Firefox Windows
- Rebooted (power-off)
- Tried Firefox / Edge on Windows as well as Firefox, Chrome and PIXLS app on Android (which is actually Chrome, right?)
- Did a Shift+Ctrl+R in Firefox on Windows
Results:
- Firefox / Edge on Windows and Firefox on Android - Showed “Loading” and five colored dots for 10+ minutes (Firefox Windows and Android sync with each other)
- Chrome on Android - PIXLS loaded OK but I didn’t have an image to test*
- PIXLS Android app - PIXLS loaded OK but I didn’t have an image to test*
After refreshing Firefox and Edge on Windows, PIXLS loaded but I still can’t paste / load an image in either one. FWIW, I was also unable to authenticate into PIXLS in Edge using Google, but remembered my password which worked.
* I’ll find an image on my phone and try posting it to this thread shortly. But so far from testing I’ve done it’s not limited to a single browser nor OS so it appears to be possibly server-side… ?

Firefox on Android, test image copied to clipboard and pasted before (to replicate desktop experience as closely as possible):
…
Nevermind – I apparently can’t paste in Firefox Android (unable to summon a “paste” prompt) and trying a standard upload gives the same error. So something is up on the site.
I’m using Edge so it’s not the solution for me.
I just realised that I had confused myself about the updates on my machine - I haven’t yet installed that KB33375 update.
Does seem like the original issue could be more server related. I can’t upload images again now.
I’m seeing other issues with forums / messages not loading for a long time. It appears there’s something wrong.
I just tried uploading an image (screen cap of the five dots busy indicator I saw when “back button” returning to the ART forum) from the app on my phone, same error. It’s on the server / site.

Dump your browser cache and log out/in please.
Done, two different browsers (Firefox, Edge). Same error when I logged back in and tried to drop an image on the message composer.
fixed.

Yep - Thanks!
I still get the infinite bouncy dots on occasion. In Firefox, desktop and mobile, when refresh does not work, I usually click or tap the address bar to force the browser resolve the address again.
Or I take a break from the forum. Some discussions can be intense.

Edited my recent post and can confirm images now show. Kudos to the site developers for fixing this issue.
