If you can upload images, then you could try uploading scripts or other code. 
Vulnerable code may be used to have the mySQL server escalate you.

Poorly formated uploads could also be used to try a heap or stack attack.

I tried doing a few commands after I telneted to it but it required more 
rights. I the only venue of sucess I got so far was loging in to the admin 
management page of the site, which is where I was trying to see if I could get 
further.

Have you tested to see if the FTP server is allowing uploads? Is the upload 
directory shared if one exists? I would not bypass FTP so soon.

Don?t forget the 2001 Apache compromise?
