AFAIK, it happens when you upload the same filename more than once.
You need to rename image before re-uploading.

Here are the same files that I gave different names...

What's up with this?

This is what I see when I upload the same image without changing the name...

For direct image uploads (as opposed to attachments used in your first example), I highly recommend not using special characters (like "&") in file names, which can cause lots of problems and keep the URLs from being displayed properly in phpBB. I prefer not to use spaces in file names either. It's best to replace spaces with "-" dashes or "_" under_bars.

So it's the special characters that's making that happen.
Okay thanks Tux, I'll be more aware of this when uploading images in the future.
As you can see, just removing the special characters in the image names they uploaded normally... viewtopic.php?f=18&t=10770&p=143182#p143173
