OK, so I have solved the undefined index problem - the view file was
wrong, it should have been "Tip.image" instead of just image. However,
I changed it to "Img.pic" so as not to clash with image.

I'm now getting the following error when trying to "add":

Notice (8): Array to string conversion [APP\controllers\components
\image.php, line 50]
Warning (2): strrpos() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given
[APP\controllers\components\image.php, line 145]

I've done some searching, and I understand that the error means an
array is being given as opposed to a string, but I didn't really come
across a fix? Has anybody got any ideas?

Thanks in advance!
