   Hi there,

   I just installed WordPress on my hosts server. It al worked out well, but when I try to upload a new header picture from my computer I get the following message:

   Unable to create directory /home/orangele/domains/orangelemondesign.nl/public_html/wp-content/uploads/2011/09. Is its parent directory writable by the server?

   Is there anyone who can help me?

   Thanks a lot in advance,
   Sacha

   Try changing the permissions on the wp-content directory to 766. If you still have problems, try 767, 775 or 777. Once your uploads are working, change the permissions on wp-content back to 755 again and check that everything still works OK.
