Your images could have bad headers ( damaged ) or they could be named with the wrong extension.
You can temporarly disable the upload check function from maincore.php

// Checking file types of the uploaded file with known mime types list to prevent uploading unwanted files
if(isset($_FILES) && count($_FILES)) {
   require_once BASEDIR.'includes/mimetypes_include.php';
   $mime_types = mimeTypes();
   foreach($_FILES as $each) {
      if(isset($each['name']) && strlen($each['tmp_name'])) {
         $file_info = pathinfo($each['name']);
         $extension = $file_info['extension'];
         if(array_key_exists($extension, $mime_types)) {
            //An extension may have more than one mime type
            if(is_array($mime_types[$extension])) {
               //We should check each extension one by one
               $valid_mimetype = false;
               foreach($mime_types[$extension] as $each_mimetype) {
                  //If we have a match, we set the value to true and break the loop
                  if($each_mimetype==$each['type']) {
                     $valid_mimetype = true;
                     break;
                  }
               }

               if(!$valid_mimetype) {
                  die('Prevented an unwanted file upload attempt!');
               }
               unset($valid_mimetype);
            } else {
               if($mime_types[$extension]!=$each['type']) {
                  die('Prevented an unwanted file upload attempt!');
               }
            }
         } /*else { //Let's disable this for now
            //almost impossible with provided array, but we throw an error anyways
            die('Unknown file type');
         }*/
         unset($file_info,$extension);
      }
   }
   unset($mime_types);
}

@DOMI

Hey. On my brand new fresh install of 7.02.07 I have a user that tried to submit a photo and couldn't. He emailed me and attached the photo which is a valid jpg file @1600x1200. I then tried myself to do a submit and it failed for me also saying invaled filetype so I totally disabled the check in maincore as suggested and it still fails. I don't understand why this is happening.

The image could contain bad codes.
Most image upload sections should also run something called verify_image function, I woulden´t recommend disabling that, but in a controlled environment you could unless you have good means to manually verify that image.

Well I know for a positive fact that the pic is fine; also I tried several of my own pictures w/same result. The check in maincore just doesn't work right. I commented out the entire thing and all is good.

In user photo gallery Thread http://www.php-fusion.co.uk/forum/viewthread.php?thread_id=33340#post_182844
There are small bugs, and one of them is, you can not add files of lower case extension.
