For the last two days I have had some trouble loading images into posts. I click on the black "I" and select an image, then when I click to load it, the timer symbol just spins around and around endlessly, making me exit the page, re-enter it, and re-try loading the image 2-3 times until it works. Is it just me?

I have not had that problem in some time, John, and was hoping it was a thing of the past.  I'll know when I go to load my SOTD photos later today.

I've experienced the same thing John, but usually only on my phone when I'm not on Wi-Fi.

I hadn't had this issue for a while, but it reared its head again this evening. Same issue that John is having:

1. Click black 'i' block symbol and choose image file
2. Spinning timer for a few minutes until I lose patience.
3. I hit Refresh or Preview
a. Shows error and suggests re-entering message
4. Hit "i' block again to add picture
a. This time, it loads link for the image to the message

this is usually an issue on the imgur servers as that's the service we use. I can post an image without problem, but yesterday I was having the same issues as you guys were experiencing.

testing...

Went to access my albums on Imgur an hour or two ago, and I couldn’t even log in, because the service was “overloaded”. I waited a few seconds and then it worked. I wonder what’s going on with their service…

It's doing it again this morning. It is not a major problem, but it certainly is annoying.

imgur is very popular. it's possible that they may of been getting hit with a DDOS.

I’ve been unable to post any images for the past few hours, I’ll hit the ”I” Button and then just get the spinning wheel of death. Any suggestions?
