I'm running Drupal 5.3 on Mac OS10. I've installed the Image module, and enabled Import, Attach, Gallery & Assist. I'm running into a big problem with uploading images though. No matter what module I use, Preview and Publish take me to a white screen. I did change my memory limits in PHP.ini to quite high (32MB), so I don't think that is the problem. I see the image files in the generated directory files/images/temp. They stay there and are not copied to the files/images directory. I also see the css folder that was created when I enabled the modules.

I tried to create a temp directory in the root folder, based on feedback I saw elsewhere - and route the temp files there - but since the image module automatically recreates files/images/temp, that's no good.

I originally was working with 5.x-1.6, then tried the dev version to see if possibly that would fix it - it does not.
Is there anything that can be done?

i've got the same issue. I upload the picture and it takes me to a white page.

I saw this issue over and over again in the module support forum. I followed every thread and bit of advice...It took me a million different tries of trial and error....
Basically, it seems to be working now, (plus got it working with image gallery and image assist)

A couple things that I believe helped me.

1. Go to administer>site configuration>Image module settings and review closely. Tweak Original dimensions to either a reasonable size limit (800 pixels one dimension or up) or blank. This prevents trying to upload originals that are too large in pixel dimension - which leaves them in temp folder and takes you to white screen of death. Also tweak your file upload size - I increased mine to 2MB (instead of 800K). NOTE: I'm dealing with artwork so even my web ready source images are not super tiny.

2. Follow this snippet of code posted by drinkypoo http://drupal.org/node/21314#comment-155992
I previewed this and it seemed to link up my gallery module correctly with uploaded images. There is some information on categories/taxonomy here to read as well.

Once I did these things, in this order, it seems to work much better. Only getting the white screen now when trying to upload unallowed image sizes, and I'm getting the galleries drop down just fine.

Sorry, this issue cannot be fixed. See White Screen of Death and memory issues.
