Avatar Cropping always leads to “There was a problem cropping your avatar, please try uploading it a

I’ve tried literally everything, but can’t get avatar uploads to work. Everytime a user attempts to upload an avatar and crop, it leads to the “There was a problem cropping your avatar, please try uploading it again” message. I’m not using any other plugins, just buddypress (1.2.7), wordpress (3.0.4 multisite), and a custom child theme (fishbook). There doesn’t appear to be any javascript issues, and the permissions are all 755. I’ve seen countless threads about this go dead, but it is imperative I get this up and running. Help is much appreciated!

Go to Settings -> Miscellaneous Settings
Set “Store uploads in this folder” to “wp-content/uploads”.
Set “Full URL path to files” to the REAL FULL PATH of your uploads.

Then change bp-core-avatars.php line 389:

Replace:
`if ( !$path = get_option( ‘upload_path’ ) )
$path = WP_CONTENT_DIR . ‘/uploads’;`

With:
`if ( !$path = get_option( ‘upload_path’ ) )
$path = WP_CONTENT_DIR . ‘/uploads’;
else $path = ABSPATH . $path;`

I’m using Multisite, so this doesn’t actually exist. Also, that line number in bp-core-avatars.php is entirely different for me. I’ve seen this solution before for WP-Single but I have yet to see any solution for Multisite. Is there a way to adapt this solution to multisite?
