Don,

I've been trying to upload photos of the N. Ga. Maintenance day M&E and I keep getting this message that says photos can not be uploaded due to missing security token, check with administrator.

Am I doing some thing wrong or is this a glitch because of software update?

That's usually caused by your browser having an old copy of the page cached. Try clearing your browser's cache and see it will work then.

Evidently I don't know how to do this or I'm computer ignorant or something cause nothing I did made any difference. I still can't upload photos.

What browser are you using? I use Firefox and you click "tools" on the menu and then "clear private data" and the select "cache".

IE is a bit different. You click on "Tools", "Internet Options", then the delete button on the General Tab under Browsing History.

One other thing. I've found out that this can sometimes be caused by trying to upload very large images. What size, file size, are the images you are trying to upload. They should be no larger than 640 x 480 and under 200,000 bytes.

I'm operating a new camera I got for Christmas and I guess I have to find out how to make pictures smaller. Maybe I'll read the owners manual today.

Yes, what he said. :) Take the pictures as you have been. Then the quality will be great if you want to print them out or something. Then just resize them using your computer before uploading them here.
