I am expecting images to show up after being uploaded.

Images are not showing up on the preview screen, nor on the posted story. No uploaded images have been seen anywhere on the preview and posts. They are just not showing up.

The images are indeed being uploaded because they are visible in the sites/default/files directory.
I have played with the display settings for the fields and nothing has changed.
Clicking on the space where the image should be once posted brings up Error 500

Quick update...

A small preview image is showing up after clicking upload, but image is still not visible on the preview screen, nor on the final post.

What display settings are you using? Check them at admin/content/node-type/[type_name]/display, it sounds like it's having trouble at the formatter level.

OK, I named the Image upload field as 'Image', and the display settings are as follows

Field: Image
Label: Above
Teaser: Image
Exclude: Not selected
Full Node: Image
Exclude: not selected

I also read somewhere that switching to 'Inline' and then back to 'Above' fixes a similar issue, but I tried that and it did not work

I took a look at your website and found the problem.

Currently images are trying to show up at:

http://www.art-danielcalderon.com/blog/?q=system/files/web-by-dannylogo.jpg?1238385472

However this URL is incorrect since it contains two question marks. The second one needs to be a "&".

This bug has already been fixed in the development version of ImageField in #416684: Problem with appending timestamp when file system is private.

If possible, the easiest fix is to enabled EITHER clean urls (admin/settings/clean-urls) or to use public files (admin/settings/file-system). I'd suggest using both options if possible. Clean URLs make for better URLs and private files really slow down a site.

Alternatively you can apply the patch in #416684 or download the development version of ImageField.

Thank you Quicksketch for the clear response.

Ok, I have enabled cleanURLs and the images showed up on the posted stories. The file system was set to private. The images only did not show up on the preview page.

The next thing I did was set the file system to public. Upon doing so, the images once again became un-visible on the posted stories and on the preview page.

It seems as though setting the file system public prevents the images to show up on the site.

There are three places that Images could show up. They are the small upload preview screen, the post preview page, and the final post itself.

1. Private file system and cleanURL: yes small preview, no post preview, yes final post.
2. Public file system and cleanURL: no small preview, no post preview, no final post.
3. Private file system and cleanURL disabled: yes small preview, no post preview, no final post.
4. Public file system and cleanURL disabled: no small preview, no post preview, no final post

For the moment I will have private and clean enabled on my site

It seems as though setting the file system public prevents the images to show up on the site.

That's because you can't switch at will from private to public (or vice-versa). Once the option is set, you can't ever change it without manually fixing the entries in the "files" database table. Yet another reason why I recommend people just stick with the default public (fast) downloads. :-/

After changing the setting, it will take effect for all new files.

Thanks for the report though, I'll do some more testing to make sure this gets fixed in the next version.
