# http error uploading images

 * I have installed NextGEN Gallery on my self-hosted WordPress site. When I attempt
   to create a gallery, and upload images, I get an exclamation mark in a yellow
   triangle, which says “http error”. I have searched the forums for this issue,
   and found a thread, posted a year ago, that suggested altering a line of code
   in the ngg-config.php file, but I have searched the plugins/nextgen-gallery folder
   on my server and do not see this file anywhere. Am I looking in the wrong place,
   or is this a different issue altogether?

 * Never mind – I solved it. I had to change the permissions on my wp-content directory
   in order for it to be able to create the “Gallery” directory.
