[daisy] Error on Browsing for Images

[Jill Giboney]

Next time it happens, I'll check out the temporary image upload directory
and see what it looks like.

Something else I thought of was that it could it be a lock problem. Would
that make sense?

Ok, that seems allright then.

I'm still pretty sure the error is caused by a sudden removal of the
temporary image upload directory, though I can't imagine what the cause
could be. Anyone has an idea?
