Code

function form_example_tutorial_10($form_state) {
  // If you are familiar with how browsers handle files, you know that
  // enctype="multipart/form-data" is required. Drupal takes care of that, so
  // you don't need to include it yourself.

  $form['file'] = array(
    '#type' => 'file', 
    '#title' => t('Image'), 
    '#description' => t('Upload a file, allowed extensions: jpg, jpeg, png, gif'),
  );

  $form['submit'] = array(
    '#type' => 'submit', 
    '#value' => t('Submit'),
  );
