mediawiki is trying to parse a bunch of my .png files instead of just displaying the picture....any thoughts?

Why is that a problem? Can you define "parse", i suspect you mean something other than the usual definition.

Just to note, you used parse 100% correctly - sorry about being condescending

This means your webserver is configured to parse all files on the server as PHP files. This is bad and a security risk. Only .php files should be processed by PHP!

This has nothing to do with MediaWiki, btw.
