Hello Rob,
Thanks for your help. I figured out that GD Library is included in the zip install, but not the executable install of PHP. i downloaded the zip, copied php_gd2.dll into my PHP/Ext directory, edited my PHP.ini to include that dll, and it is now working. I'll have to check out ImageMagick - i'm unfamiliar w/ it, but if it's better, i'll give it a try.
Found the localsettings.php file and made that change. I'm now trying to test to see if my upload works, but i'm running into a different problem. Please forgive, maybe this should be a new thread... but to test i try to edit a page. (not even add image, just edit the text) and i get the following error - "Sorry! We could not process your edit due to a loss of session data. Please try again. If it still doesn't work, try logging out and logging back in."
It's an intermittent problem, during the writing of this post, i succeeded in editing a page, and uploading an image, but got session-related errors many times.
I'm wondering if there's a session.timeout setting in the wiki I need to fix, or if maybe my PHP is having problems with sessions (?).
I'd appreciate any advice! thanks. ~jon

Assuming i find the way to enable it in PHP and it's ready to go, i already have the wiki configured, can i just change a setting to enable thumbnails? I'm hoping i can find a place to do that instead of having to re-run the install page...
Set $wgUseImageResize to true.
It might be better to locate and install ImageMagick, then set the path to that in LocalSettings.php; it produces better conversions.
