Have you tried:
– deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem? If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).
– switching to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific problems?
– resetting the plugins folder by FTP or phpMyAdmin? Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.
– re-uploading the wp-admin and wp-includes folders from a fresh download of WordPress?
– increasing your available memory?
Thanks, esmi for the reply.
Yes, I have tried all steps and nothing. I deleted the plugins folder completely, switched to the default theme and nothing.
I will try re-uploading the wp-admin and wp-includes folder.
I will keep all posted.

@esmi,
I am working on my local machine…does this matter when it comes to photo editing?
I switched to the default theme (no go). I am using a fresh copy of 2.9.2…the only thing I copied was my custom theme into the “themes” folder. Again, no go.
The only thing I have in my plug-ins folder is what downloaded with WP 2.9.2.
Do I have to activate this option somewhere…like in my functions.php file? Also, when I add media through creating a page I get a few additional options and some that are missing. I am missing the new thumbnail option.
Additional options are:
Alignment:
None
Left
Center
Right
Size:
Thumbnail
Medium
Large
Full size (1024 × 768)
I select a radio button for the alignment, but I can’t change the size. Full size is the only one selected and the others are grayed out. Any thoughts on this?
I greatly appreciate your time and help.

You shouldn’t need to activate any options in WordPress. My guess is that your local server doesn’t include the necessary PHP image modules – the GD library, if I remember correctly..
Thanks, esmi! How do I install the PHP image modules (GD library)? I tried to google it and can’t find anything about this.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

I am having similar problems – if you cannot provide a fix I will pay someone to help me – using 2.9.2 with the painter theme I can upload and see photos fine when they are loaded via DW FTP and inserted in a Post – or when I insert in a post via URL or link – but not when I upload via WP. The images are there but with a red x on a white outline of the image. When I go to edit the image I can see it but then when I save it it has the red x in the Media file and in the post.
Thank you very much for your help – If you need to provide paid consulting let me know and I will provide my e-mail address. Thank you.
mfogel,
I found this link…have not tried it yet. Let me know if this works for you.
