semi workaround:

I think I must be missing something else but this got me functional.

folder —  /includes/inc.process.php

commenting out all 4 of the process image and process logo lines works.  ie…. 1 example below  –  there are actually 4 of these sections between   lines 355 to line 504

$process_image->allowed    = array( ‘image/jpeg’, ‘image/gif’, ‘image/png’ );

//$process_image->auto_create_dir  = true;

//$process_image->auto_chmod_dir  = true;

//$process_image->file_safe_name  = true;

//$process_image->file_auto_rename = true;

//$process_image->file_name_body_add = ‘_original’;

//$process_image->image_convert  = ‘jpg’;

//$process_image->jpeg_quality  = 80;
