When you get to this screen, choose the “upload file” option if you’re using a laptop. We’ve found that the take photo option (which uses your laptop’s camera) is very difficult to get a clear photo from, and most of the time photos are rejected.

Instead take a photo from your mobile phone and email it to yourself. Then download it to your laptop and click the upload file option. If you’re using a mobile its ok to use the “take photo” option because it will use the phones cameras anyway which will be easier to get a clear shot which will be accepted by the ID moderators.
