 * I’m trying to add images to my posts and pages…..
 * Attempt to upload using Browser Uploader getting the file from my computer, I
   click the upload button and nothing happens.
 * Attempt to upload from my computer using the Flash Uploader, I get the following
   message :_Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried
   to allocate 8688 bytes) in /home/skipt121/public\_html/wp-includes/media.php 
   on line 254_
 * Interestingly, when I do the above, it shows up in my Media Library and Gallery.
   When I attempt to upload from either of those locations, this is the message 
   I get: _You don’t have permission to access /wp-admin/media-upload.php on this
   server. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use
   an ErrorDocument to handle the request. Apache Server at skipthesalt.com Port
   80_
 * Suggestions on how to fix this problem?

 * Try increasing the memory available to PHP:
    [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/253495#post-1017842](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/253495#post-1017842)
 * Or upload smaller images at a lower resolution.
