  i am trying to upload a picture in one of my posts, and for some reason it is being rejected “for security reasons”. Could it really be that the software is recognizing that this picture is of a baby, taking a bath, and therefore rejects it as some sort of child pornography? The picture only shows the face and arms of the baby, and there is no nudity. What could be the problem? Thanks

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi justjennifer! Thanks for the hint. This picture is a JPEG file, and only 44kb, so I am not sure that changing it properties will help :/
