PHP - Total Php Failure

After working with the sample imagecreatefromjpeg provided in the PHP manual, I successfully got a result (after clearing my cache) from

imagecreatefromjpeg($im, $file);

I've gotten a good education after navigating this function over the past week, and loaded it with ECHO messages to give me insight.

Everything was going fine.

And then, this ONE test image came along.

Apparently, the image (which is as good aj peg as I can find) FAILS the if(!im) test.

When I used echo $im;  

i discovered that when images pass through the function, they receive a "Resource" name.

Images that FAIL are NOT named.

This image gets a Resource name, yet FAILS. Is there a problem with my logic? A problem with the image? What would cause this? How can I verify?

I am working on an e banking web app. So i was stuck on the transferring to the same bank page.. I have spent a lot of time to check where the errors are to no avail. The issue is the code doesnt work it gives a blank page...
