When trying to change the profile photo directly from the profile page itself - mousing over the photo etc - it allows me to select a photo but then comes back with photo upload was not successful. However, if I upload a photo from within the photo album and then select it as my profile photo, I have no issues.
I've checked the folder permissions and they are correct. Do note that I cannot upload profile photos from the join page either - it comes back with nothing and marks any photo as being an invalid image.
