          # that matched arguments were always None, even if they had been given.

docs: Upload the image at either path or url.
  
          :param path: The path to the image you want to upload.
          :param url: The url to the image you want to upload.
          :param title: The title the image will have when uploaded.

          :param album: The album the image will be added to when uploaded. Can
              be either a Album object or it's id. Leave at None to upload
              without adding to an Album, adding it later is possible.
              Authentication as album owner is necessary to upload to an album
              with this function.
  
          :returns: An Image object representing the uploaded image.
