Great tutorial as always - however just noticed..when doing this for the register & login site you need to also edit the profile.php page...otherwise when you visit someone elses profile youre going to see your profile image and name. On the profile.php page make sure you add the mysql field holding your image.. 'profile'
in the profile_data variable.

Make sure the if statement that echoes the profile image says profile_data not user_data, both in the parameters and in the echo statement.

in your users.php under what you put for the register_user to post did you only do up to email code or did I miss something? since the other stuff below the email_code isnt allowed to be null how do you get the query from the register_user to complete without errors?

How can i link a profile image to a user when having two tables first is users table and the other is for example images table?

the link you gave for the source code is broken. its saying the page is not found

Turning enabling error_reporting(0) won't actually make that actually go away ... The end() function is the one that returns this for some reason. You can use and intermediary variable so you don't put explode() inside the end() function and the error will go away. Something like this:
$file_name_exploded = explode('.', $file_name);
$file_extn =

it is better if empty you display an image with some kind of icon you already design for no picture..

add or uncomment >> error_reporting(0); it goes inside init.php which fixed same problem for me.

[StormRocko]

can simply be hacked by uploading a file such as hack.php..jpg, you need to check the extension and rename the file then upload
