You forgot to add (.) before $ext in move_uploaded_file 

if(move_uploaded_file($tmpName,"photos/userimages/".$id."."$ext)

should:

if(move_uploaded_file($tmpName,"photos/userimages/".$id."." . $ext)

    When you start a (php) string literal with double-quotes it has to end with double-quotes, and if you start it with a single-quotes ...a single quote ends it. You have mixed that up twice. – VolkerK Jan 20 '16 at 02:45
