I'm not sure what you mean by support fields...I looked around, but 
couldn't find much clarification.

I know that Paperclip doesn't store the actual image in the database, 
that would be silly :) But it's not saving anything to the database in 
the avatar_file_name, _content_type, _file_size, or _updated_at fields, 
they're just NULL.

Anyway, I followed Fernando Perez's advice about attr_accessible and it 
sort of worked, now I'm getting a different error: Avatar 
C:/DOCUME~1/mars/LOCALS~1/Temp/stream,5388,3.jpg is not recognized by 
the 'identify' command.

I poked around and it seemed to be a problem with ImageMagick, which I 
didn't have installed. I installed it and checked that the PATH was 
right, but it keeps giving the the same error. Looking around, I tried 
the solution here:

changing the ImageMagick location to what I had in the PATH, but it 
keeps giving me the same error.
