Thanks for pointing out the images Vs Images typo. Unfortunately it seems even stranger to me now.
My images directory is called ~Portals\0\Images (big I) but the only time is shows the pictures is with the following config entry:
<property name="ImageManager.ViewPaths">,~/images</property>
Notice the preceding comma and the lower case "i"
If I change the comma or fix the casing the images don't show! I only found this by accident and a long process of elimination but I think this might just be a fluke/bug as subdirs are not shown.
I have tried all the other suggestions for what to put ViewPaths but with no success.
A brand new install of 5.4.2 did not seem to need any settings in ConfigDefault.xml to work which is odd.
I get the following errors in the event log:

I must admit that I have upgraded to 5.4.3 as I was hoping the upgrade might fix the problems but no such luck.
