 * Hi,
    I know this sounds like many of the other posts, but my problem was a little
   different, and specific to this plugin. I ended up fixing my problem, so hopefully
   this post will help others!
 * Sharing the love !
 * Ok, so originally the wordpress file size limit was 2MB. I got the blank screen
   error with the ‘0’ displayed, when trying to upload 6MB files.
 * I then managed to up my file size limit to 64MB, using the create the php.ini
   method.
    Small win !
 * This sort of worked? What I mean by that is, Frontend Uploader would manage to
   upload the file to my server, but could not create the thumbnail, and didn’t 
   send the notification email. Also the screen would go completely blank without
   the ‘0’ error.
 * I figured the file size was ok, but there was some kind of server memory problem
   that would cause it crash and not complete all the steps.
 * After reading various posts I found the ‘memory_limit’ option and set it to 96MB,
   but still the same problem. At this point I’m testing with a 10MB file, so nowhere
   near the 64MB limit.
 * I thought, what the hell, and increased the memory_limit to 256M and it worked!!!
   Yay !!
 * I then tried and it worked with three 10MB files at the same time.
 * I am not sure what the limit is with my settings, but I guess it will be a case
   by case problem.
 * I hope this helps fix some of your problems, and point you in the right direction.
 * Here is my php.ini file.
 * upload_max_filesize = 64M
    post_max_size = 64M max-execution-time = 300 memory_limit
   = 256M
 * Good Luck !!
    Marinko
