    My image upload function workd fine up until now because its 2007.
    I get an error like this:

    "Unable to create directory /hsphere/local/home2/josiahp/design-parade.siahart.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/05. Is its parent directory writable by the server?"

    I check my folders and the folders 2007 and 05 doesnt exsist. I created those folders but my images still wont upload.

    whats the parent directory?

    I check the permisions from design-parade.siahart.com all the way down to the 05 folder and all are "writeable" by the "user". should I allow writeable for "Group" and "other"?

    Might need to go all the way to 777.

    I know this is meant to be resolved but when I go to my dashboard to see where my uploads should go it says
    http://www.ozwebhub.com/blog/wp-admin/upload.php
    I do not have an upload.php file there but it won't become a subdirectory. Do I upload to wp-admin?

    When I try to upload an image from the post, it won't upload. It says /home/httpd/vhosts/ozwebhub.com/httpdocs/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/09. Is its parent directory writable by the server?
    I've read about chmodding etc, but which file to chmod?
