How do I upload images and videos to the forum?

I tried uploading an image to Imgur, but I’ve hit a wall. The four fields on the left—the ones meant for the HTML, IMG Code, URL, and Direct link—are just completely blacked out. Since I can't actually grab any of those links, the entire upload ends up being pretty much useless.
Has the process changed recently without my noticing, or am I just dealing with a temporary glitch?

Let me give this a shot

The second I log in—boom—everything breaks. No images, no links, just a total mess. Everything is essentially broken.
So, it's working...

Attention to everyone using Postimages
Postimages just announced that you can actually get all your images to show up again if you simply swap out the .org in the URL for .cc.
Basically, right now the links look like this:
(image)https://s14.postimg.org/9gxpi5f5t/image.jpg[/IMG]
but you need to change that part to .cc
(image)https://s14.postimg.cc/9gxpi5f5t/image.jpg[/IMG]
and then the photo will finally display properly.

Thanks, Douglas Sanchez53. I just picked up a new Motorola for my mobile data, and it immediately flagged some sketchy websites—so, are you saying the image hosting sites themselves are suspicious? I was having a nightmare trying to upload pictures earlier because it kept acting like I had no connection at all. I know that sounds a bit weird, but I figured I should mention it.
