I'd shorten the code you're searching for. You'll find there may be a minor difference, but by shortening the search string a bit you should be able to find the code in the navbar template that is the one being referred to.
The directory where the images going to be stored according to your fourm root is defined in -VB image host options-Image path You need to definne this to a folder chmod 777. You are shure making the right settings?
Yes, its working. CHMOD 777 has been applied.
BUT
The problem is getting rid of the images I had previously tried to upload which it is saying are still present and cannot be deleted. I have done a full search of my server and can't find the images anywhere, and I don't want to make the install live until I have it nice and clean, otherwise my users will see 10-14 blank images that will make it all look very messy.
Anything I upload from now on works perfectly though - its just these old images I need to get rid of.
same problem for me i forgot to make folder '777' so i tried uplaoding 3 images all ok but then the same as USER: 'Derty Eric B' got, i then gave folder 777 permissions and all is good.. but im left with 3 blank images and there seems to be nothing i can do to delete them.. PLEASE help anyone? ..
I've uninstalled this now. The sad thing is I'd got it working, but to not be able to remove the errored images is just pointless. I can't locate them and it means I am left with two accounts with dud images against them - so it's gone for me.

Erm, you never thought of a quick delete directly from the database
