   I haven't had trouble in the past with image uploads, and this happened out of the blue - I've not made any changes to WordPress or otherwise on my computer in a while...

   Now, most of the time when I try to upload, especially any image larger than "blog size" (about 300 pixels across), I often get an "HTTP Error" and it won't upload at all... Or else it gets the full-size image through, but doesn't have the sizing options and such, but instead just rolls off this long string of error text:

   Warning: imagecreatefromstring() [function.imagecreatefromstring]: gd-jpeg: JPEG library reports unrecoverable error: in /homepages/24/d274473209/htdocs/wp-includes/media.php on line 254
   
   Warning: imagecreatefromstring() [function.imagecreatefromstring]: Passed data is not in 'JPEG' format in /homepages/24/d274473209/htdocs/wp-includes/media.php on line 254
   
   Warning: imagecreatefromstring() [function.imagecreatefromstring]: Couldn't create GD Image Stream out of Data in /homepages/24/d274473209/htdocs/wp-includes/media.php on line 254

   I know enough to do my ungrades and such, but I'm not at all savvy about such things... Any ideas??

   Thanks!

   Well, I'm working my way through that stuff...

   The second article you linked doesn't seem to apply, as it's directed to the 2.5 build... Do they have a corresponding "fix" out there for the v 3's?

   It's not my flash player, it's not my upload, it's not my cookies... Making the files smaller SOMETIMES helps, if I scale them all the way down to 300 pixels wide -- but you know, sometimes I'd like to have a bigger image that they can click to, to see more details...

   *sigh*
