I cannot see what the issue is with this line:

$imagepath = $dirPath.'\files\images\profile\people\';

I get

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ''\files\images\profile\people\' (T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE)

What am I missing?

Escape your backslashes - they have special meanings in strings and `\'` is an escaped `'` symbol - not a backslash followed by a `'`. – h2ooooooo Jun 19 '17 at 16:56
Thanks. Duh. My bad. – yondaimehokage Jun 19 '17 at 16:57
