to note, it was a picture of my Switch with Zelda completed (you can see it in my zelda thread in the console section). I resized it down 3% and retried and the resize went up. I still have the original picture as well.

This has been happening to me for some reason.  Pics are jpg, 1.2MB each and I've tried multiple times.  Get the failed security checks message....

Unfortunately, the forum software sometimes throws false positives during the security checks.   

The best known workaround is to either crop or resize the image by about 3-5% and try uploading it again.

Think it was a picture size issue.  My original pics were 2016x1512 and about 1.2MB.  Went to half size so they ended up at 1024x768 and 200-300KB.  All good now, thanks!

its not the sizes. last time I got the warning I drew a black dot in a dark section of the picture and it uploaded fine after.
