I just figured it out.

I can use this:
<?php echo $curauth->nickname; ?>

So long as I changed some above script to this:

<?php
$curauth = (get_query_var('author_name')) ? get_user_by('slug', get_query_var('author_name')) : get_userdata(get_query_var('author'));
?>

Thanks for your help.

This:
Shows hosted by <?php $author = get_the_author(); ?>:

Becomes this:

Show hosted by :

Maybe this is relevant…I had no problems at all with the media uploader in the last version of WP.

No, my uploads are definitely in wp-content/uploads. I’ve been through the post you linked to and I’ve done it all. Nothing worked. I haven’t even found anyone else with the same problem yet. I’ve re-uploaded all of the 2.6 files just to make sure but the problem remains.
