 On my company site, I created a category called '''Announcements''' and
 uploaded an image called '''Announcements.png'''  Both had permalinks of
 http://MYDOMAIN/announcements  When I tried to navigate to
 http://MYDOMAIN/announcements I was expecting to see a listing of all the
 posts in that category, but instead the site was showing the image.

 I tried with different themes, deactivated all plugins but the issue
 remained.  At the time I didn't realize there was an attachment with the
 same name as my category.  Once I figured that out, I simply changed the
 attachment name and updated the permalink and everything worked properly.

 I have a custom permalink structure: '''/%category%/%postname%''' Category
 Base '''.''' and Tag base of '''keyword'''
