Warning: strtotime() [function.strtotime]: It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function.
Searching the web provided the answer:
Php 5.3.0 & WP 2.8 (It is not safe to rely on the system’s timezone)
But my MacBook Air didn’t have a /etc/php.ini file – It did however, have a /etc/php.ini.default file so I copied that, then had to change the permissions, and edited it, and restarted apache:
sudo cp /etc/php.ini.default /etc/php.ini
sudo chmod u+w /etc/php.ini
sudo vi /etc/php.ini
sudo /usr/sbin/apachectl restart
I added the following on the second line of /etc/php.ini:
date.timezone="Sydney/Australia"
Now, the URL above works and my images are showing correctly.
