How can I change the security confirmation images?

I bought my IPB so im just wondering why my registration numbers are different than that of P2L's because we both run IPB. If someone could link me to a mod, tutorial, or some site that explains this, I would be greatful. Or you could just tell me in your post.

Regards,
Zenom

Look in your ACP - Tools And Settings - Security and Privacy

You have an option to change it

P2L uses the Advanced GD Library you need that installed on your server to use (ask your host on this), you have yours set to normal.

Im hosted on the Lamda server on Serverseed. Wont I have it already? I really cant contact my host(Tyler Lott). He never responds to my emails, personal messages, instant messages, and phone calls.

Update:
Well I found what you were talking about. I have to set the security setting to high. It even says I require the GD library. When I enable it, and try to register, it says "IMAGE LOADING" although nothing is happening.

If your keen http://www.boutell.com/gd/ install yourself, sorry can't tell you much as I've always had this already enabled and I'm with SS as well but I have my own server.

I have no idea how to install it. Im not sure where I input the command line, im thinking in the cron jobs area of cPanel. But I still dont know where to upload the zipped files it came with. Its all in the extension .c. (programming language)

Well, looks like im stuck. I cant install it, and my host wont respond to me.

I have opened a support ticket concerning this matter at my host. But if I were to do it myself, where would I upload the files? Better yet, how would I run the commands. Its still very unclear to me.

You don't need to install it by downloading any packages. If you have access to WHM, just rebuild your Apache software with GD checked. Be sure to check Freetype support as well.
