ahh yes, sorry, I kinda assumed the Tag already existed, and you were
just linking the new Image to it. The thing to remember is a HABTM is
just a join record between 2 models, so it can only exist if both
records in both models already exist.

Are you accounting for duplicate Tag names in your Image upload code?
