Discussion on Local Guides 2026 Star Photos

Introduction:

This post is where you ask questions or comment on any one of the specific star photos in the Local Guides 2026 Album of Star Photos or star photos generally. Please do not add them in comments on the album post itself or in any of the previous year’s discussion posts. Such comments added there will be moved to this dedicated 2026 star photos discussion post.

We separate questions and general discussion on star photos from the album post to provide a much better and more enjoyable user experience when viewing the star photos in the album, especially on mobile devices.

Notes:

(a) If you are commenting on a specific Local Guide’s star photo in the album, then please also add a link to that star. Adding links to the subject star photo helps the reader follow your comments.

(b) If you ever believe that a post you’ve added to the Star Photo Album post needs to be deleted then rather than adding a lame comment like “this comment has been moved to the discussion post”, let any Connect Moderator know and it will be moved for you.

(c) For the same reason, do not add comments reserving your place in the album post by simply adding a one liner like “I will upload my star photo here soon” or “I’m reserving this place for my star photo”. If you’re not yet ready to add your star then please refrain from adding these lame comments in the album post. These will be moved to the discussion post.

Hi @brianforever

Please provide the steps you are taking and explain at what step in the process you get this error.

Thanks

Hello @brianforever. I’ve seen your Star Photo. Looks like you actually had problems with your Star Video.

Sorry @brianforever but I’m still not understanding your problem. If I had the steps that you are taking I’d be able to sort it out for you. This is the star photo discussion post but can you confirm the problem you are having relates to your star photo or is it your star video? Is this a new star or are you updating an old star? At what point in the process are you having the problem?
