Major Update
---------------
There is a major upgrade script to run 2.4-2.5 to get rid of the userid variable on uploaded files and move thumbs and large
images into there own directories as well as add many new enhancements and payment features to the software. Backup your database tables before you begin just in case.
Be careful to run step 3 of this upgrade script only once as it prepends the userid onto the images.
