Help With Uploads

bosoxbosox Posts: 1,562 ✭✭✭✭✭
Thanks to all the guys who offered this newby some camera advice. I bought an Olympus C-765. Figured out to take the pictures, how to get the file size under 50KB, etc. When I try to upload to PCGS it seems to upload okay, but then gives me an error message "The page you were accessing requires variables to be passed to it". When I go to view the upload, the picture is there, but when I try to attach the image to a post I get the dreaded red X on the preview of the post. Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong?

    Followed the script exactly. Still getting the same error message and the same results. Getting frustrated. Any ideas?

    I just got it to post on www.canadiancoin.com with no problems. I have no idea why it won't post here.

  • The only thing I can think of is:
    You might try using a simple filename like "a.jpg" to test purposes.
    I suspect that the filenames your using are too complicated for their system.
    Things like "1856 Flying Eagle Cent-MS65-Red.jpeg" and so on, tend to upset the webserver.
