   I've recently installed WP2.8 and I have been trying to complete my own custom template. I'd like to add a photo to the blog so that I can begin styling that but I get an error...

   The uploaded file could not be moved to /usr/local/www/htdocs/whitewavestudios.com/www/wp-content/uploads.

   It looks as though it is trying to upload locally, I've check the wp-config and I think everything is pointing where it should. Can anyone please help me.

   Thank you,
   Once I change the permissions on the the wp-contents folder, my site goes blank. In the admin, under themes, I get error messages....

   Warning: uksort() [function.uksort]: The argument should be an array in /usr/local/www/htdocs/whitewavestudios.com/www/wp-admin/themes.php on line 62

   Warning: array_slice() [function.array-slice]: The first argument should be an array in /usr/local/www/htdocs/whitewavestudios.com/www/wp-admin/themes.php on line 83

   Now I've changed the index file within wp-themes to 644 and the admin area has no error messages...

   but now there are no themes in admin, and homepage is still blank.

   Figured it out...

   I had to create an 'uploads' folder within wp-content and change the file permissions to 777.

   Is 777 a bad idea of this folder?
