    Firstly I would like to thank you all for your input on my problem.

    Well it would appear that that this problem was associated with permissions. FileZiller shows permissions a 0644 for all images, however those images uploaded after 7.3.1 update would not display. I went into the file permissions that are registered on my host site which offered an auto check of all the permissions. After the auto check all the permissions were listed with a drop down box alongside. Within each drop down box I had an option of three choices with the recommended file permission highlighted. I changed the permissions for the content/uploads to the recommended settings and everything is now working fine.

    Below are the recommended permissions. I know web hosts may be different; however the file permissions would be a good place to start if in a similar position to myself. I hope this helps.

    Check Site Permissions
    This page allows you to check if the permissions on your site appear to be valid. This will:
    1. Check that the permissions make any sense at all, eg. that a directory is accessible or that a script is executable
    2. Check for conditions which would make the web server refuse to run a script for security reasons
    3. Check for permissions which are likely to lead to security problems on your site
    The results of the scan are recommendations only: in some cases there might be a genuine need to have unusual permissions. However, lots of scripts assume an insecure environment in which all sites on a server run as the same user – such scripts will tend to want permissions like 777 and 666 which are not appropriate here.
    Permissions we would recommend below include:
    755
    This allows everyone to read and execute (or enter, for directories). Appropriate for CGI scripts and directories where you don’t mind people knowing what’s in there.
    711
    Only you (and your scripts) can read the contents, but everyone can execute/enter. Appropriate for directories which the web server needs to access but you don’t want everybody seeing what’s in there.
    700
    Only you/your scripts can do anything. Appropriate for directories which you don’t want to be web-accessible but do use, eg. to contain data files for your scripts.
    644
    Allows everyone to read. Appropriate for non-script files which you intend people to access on the web, eg. HTML, CSS.
    600
    Only you/your scripts can read. Appropriate for script include or data files which you don’t want people to access directly on the web.

    Yes all images are showing in content with permissions adfrw (0664)
    The strange thing is if I go to edit the image from the Attachment Details panel the image showes up in the Edit Media page with still no way to get the image into the post. The thumbnail window only displays a broken link.

    Thanks for getting back
    The status bar loads up and puts a grey blank in the image library.
