Missing Security Token? I cant upload pics

leonardo7 · 06-19-2011, 03:14 PM

I get a new guitar and can never post pics. It always says "missing security token"

I got a few guitars in the past year that I have not been able to post about, and a Sherman, KxK and Rico on the way but wont be able to share any of them with anyone on here cause I cant post pics. Is there anything that can be done about it?

So it doesn't let you post a link to an image hosting site?

leonardo7 · 06-19-2011, 03:26 PM

No, I can do that. I want to be able to post pics directly though like everyone else

MaxOfMetal · 06-19-2011, 03:30 PM

Have you tried different file types/formats and on different computers?

leonardo7 · 06-19-2011, 03:37 PM

Ive tried different computers and no luck. I have not tried different file types. Is it possible that 11.1 megapixel is too high of quality?

MaxOfMetal · 06-19-2011, 03:48 PM

I know the board is really picky about file sizes and types.

leonardo7 · 06-19-2011, 03:50 PM

I wouldnt know where to start if I wanted to convert the file to a lower resolution file type. Never done that before.

Test it out with random (yet appropriate

) pics from the internet.

You could also do what most people here (including myself) do and use photobucket to host your pics

Generally that error is from using a non-default forum style, but damn if I can even find how to change styles for this particular forum. I'd suggest deleting cookies from this forum and/or just trying using a different browser and see if you still have problems.

Sephael is right. The problem isn't on your end, that's an outdated template on here that needs to be updated.

Also haven't messed with the gallery, but attaching them to the post seems to work fine

Example:

Yeah, it's cool to know it still works but .... you for igniting Goldtop GAS

I had the same problem the other day trying to upload shots from the same camera. Some of them would go through some not. After messing with it and saving out different ways, and uploading one by one I was able to get it to work but really there was no rhyme or reason.
