Title: Hello, Admins?
Post by: geebus on 13:13, 27 January 19
Hi, looking for an admin.I was trying to create another topic and it said my image didn't pass security and to contact an admin.Wondering if someone has stopped me being allowed to upload pictures as I didn't realise my images were MASSIVE.I have since noticed and re-scaled my images if that is the issue.Otherwise.. ehm.. help!
Thanks in advance

Which software are you using to create your images, and which format (png, jpg...) are you using?


Several programs create images that antivirus software don't like despite being legit.

You haven't been blocked. There's a bug in the Forum that sometimes gives the "security warning". If it happens, just change the format to png and it usually solves the issue.

Regarding massive pictures. Try to keep the picture size to minimum, the database storage isn't infinite and you don't get any more information from a CPC screenshot just because you stored it in 4K :D
