In PhotoPlog's upload.php file find the following near the top:

require_once('./settings.php');

And afterwards place the following code temporarily:

echo "x".$permissions['photoplogmaxfilelimit']."x<br />";
echo "x".intval($permissions['photoplogmaxfilelimit'])."x<br />";
$temp_check = $db->query_first("SELECT COUNT(*) AS cnt
	FROM photoplog_fileuploads
	WHERE userid = ".intval($vbulletin->userinfo['userid'])."
");
echo "x".$temp_check['cnt']."x<br />";
exit();

Then call PhotoPlog's upload.php from a browser. What do you see?
