Description
I keep receiving the error message 'It is required that you upload an image for your image advertisement.' when I try to create an image ad. I am logged in as user 1, modules are enabled (ad, file cache, image ad, report), upload is also enabled, all permissions have been set.
When I fill out the form for creating an image ad and preview (or submit), it shows the image uploaded but I still get the error and cannot make the image ad.
I have tried working on this for a few hours and cannot figure out anything except there might be a bug. I didn't have this problem until I updated from 5.x-1.4-1.

After playing around some more, I think I found the problem. The Ad module does not appear to be compatible with the Image module. I was trying to attach the image through the ATTACHED IMAGES and then selecting an EXISTING IMAGE on the server.
It appears that images must be uploaded through FILE ATTACHMENTS.
Can anyone verify the compatibility issue??

You are correct, that ad_image module uses the upload module for managing images. Please see documentation/README.txt for more information.
