What's the first error message you get?
(Or perhaps it's not an error message, but what you expect
to happen, doesn't...)
Also, one of the first things to do is make sure all the variables
you're setting are accurate...run some <cfoutput>'s and check what
you're getting for variables, like this:
<cfset imageDirPath = ExpandPath("user_photos")>
<cfoutput>#imageDirPath#</cfoutput>
Once you run that make sure the "imageDirPath" is what you expect it to be.
Is it?

Subject: Re: Working With Images...Still looking
Hi Rick...Thanks for your time!
Tony's link did not work and I sent him an email via his contact form. No
reply so far.
Here is an example of what I'm looking for but only that I want to add
images to the ArtistID. I understand all this code in this example. The
problem is with the images.
http://tutorial40.learncf.com/
Run this demo:
http://tutorial40.learncf.com/demo/40
This is an interface I like to use to add news and photos for the fire
department's website.
Here is the code I want to use:
<cfset imageDirPath = ExpandPath("user_photos")>
<cfif isDefined("form.fileToUpload") and form.fileToUpload neq "">
<cfset userPhotoPath = "#imageDirPath#/user_#form.ArtistID#.jpg">
<cfset userThumbPath =
"#imageDirPath#/user_#form.ArtistID#_thumb.jpg">
<!--- Accept the file upload --->
<cffile
action="upload"
destination="#getTempDirectory()#"
fileField="fileToUpload"
nameconflict="makeunique">
<!--- Get info about the photo --->
<cfimage
action="info"
source="#cffile.serverDirectory#\#cffile.serverFile#"
structName="uploadedFileInfo">
<cfif uploadedFileInfo.width lt 100
or uploadedFileInfo.height lt 100
or uploadedFileInfo.width gt 1000
or uploadedFileInfo.height gt 1000>
<!---<cfthrow message="Please provide an image between 100
and 1000 pixels tall and wide.">--->
<cflocation url="upload_error.cfm">
</cfif>
<!--- Convert the photo --->
<cfimage
action="resize"
width="300"
height="300"
source="#cffile.serverDirectory#\#cffile.serverFile#"
destination="#userPhotoPath#"
overwrite="true">
<!--- Resize the photo to create a thumbnail --->
<cfimage
action="resize"
width="100"
height="100"
source="#userPhotoPath#"
destination="#userThumbPath#"
overwrite="true">
</cfif>
Thanks Barry.
