looks like you need to move the file from the temp dir to your upload dir
if (!move_uploaded_file($_FILES['image_upload']['tmp_name'],
$destination_file)) {
// exit sending an email to admin instead of alerting user...
echo "<br>error moving image from temp
file=".$_FILES['upload']['tmp_name'].", to ".$destination_file."<br>";
}
then process that moved file
