Victor!
What are you trying to accomplish?
Do you want to preserve the original filename?
Why not give uploaded files uniformly unique names?
In other words, where are the +'s coming from?
So, a little more detail, please!

### # check if file uploaded is good
### if ### (

### echo ('You can upload a JPG or JPEG filetype

###
### exit;

###
### # Add slashes to prevent certain errors
### $picture_name = strip_tags($_FILES['picture']['name']);
### $picture_name = addslashes($picture_name);
### $picture_name = str_replace("\r\n", "", $picture_name);
### $picture_name = str_replace(" ", "", $picture_name);
