      Hi James,

      First, I’m also a newbie.

      Base on the error it may be that "jpg" is not allowed. You can check under System > System Settings > File Type.

      To avoid such error in uploading, i input "JPG", "BMP", "JPEG", "PNG", "GIF" etc (in capital letters). I believe Linux servers are case sensitive.
