It means that at least one of the large, medium, or small thumbnails could not be created, and it could be a permissions issue. Double check that the PhotoPlog images directory, and all subdirectories within the PhotoPlog images directory, have 777 permissions. On a *nix server, to set 777 permissions in one go via hell, cd to your PhotoPlog images directory, and then type the following:
Content visible to registered users only.

Sorry, PitBikeClub: Bad Save - Thumbs Creation Failed

The "Bad Save - Thumbs Creation Failed" message means that at least one of the large, medium, or small thumbnails could not be created. Create a new user and try uploading using the new user account. If you are able to upload with one account but not another account, then there is probably a directory or sub-directory inside the PhotoPlog images directory that still needs 777 permissions.
