I think I got it to go, but now I get the following error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: imagecreatefromstring() in /home/tiburon/public_html/forum/admincp/convert_vbgarage.php on line 140

Your first error is a check for a file included with the package for upload. You must upload that file to the images folder you created and set the attributes on that folder to 777.

The second error indicates that your host does not have GD2 enabled. GD2 is required for vBGarage just as it was in 3.1.1.

imagecreatefromstring() returns an image identifier representing the image obtained from the given string. These types will be automatically detected if your build of PHP supports them: JPEG, PNG, GIF, WBMP, and GD2.

Also please note that to convert to files system mode, you have to have created the thumbnails first with upgrade_vbgarage.php. That step uses imagecreatefromstring as well. It seems to me that you may have missed a step if you didn't get the error during the upgrage process creating the thumbnails?

Let me know if any of that helps.
