 * On 2 different sites, 2 different hosting companies, running the current version
   of WP, I am unable to successfully crop an image thumbnail. I’ve tried directly
   cropping via the Media Library, and cropping from a page the image is on. It 
   appears to crop the thumbnail but then the save doesn’t “stick.” I’ve also tried
   cropping thumbnails through 2 gallery plugins and while they appear to crop there,
   the cropped version is not visible in the gallery itself.
 * I’ve deactivated all plugins, changed themes, etc., and nothing works, so it 
   appears to be pointing to a WordPress issue. Any tips are welcome.

 * My WP default thumbnail settings are set to 225 x 225 pixels. If I try to override
   a thumbnail crop at the same size – 225 x 225 – the crop appears to save, but
   does not actually save.
 * If I choose a larger size, such as 226 x 226, even 300 x 300, the crop *will*
   save, and at the 225 x 225 size, which doesn’t make any sense.
