OK, I did a brand new install with 4.86 and upgraded to 5.3 (new name and new DB prefixes). Uploading pics works fine, and the 2 pics I uploaded before the upgrade display nicely after the upgrade. But I still get the white page when I try to get into admin. I've included a pic (I hope - if I got it right LOL) so you can see what it looks like. White, but with the bar in the middle, so it's trying to do something. Thanks again for your help, Chuck. I really appreciate it! Can't wait to get this right so I can do my real upgrade!...
