 * I keep getting this error while uploading pictures. What can I do? I googled 
   a few things, but I want something simple and straight to the point. What can
   I do?

 * I’ve encountered that myself before. It could be a plugin or theme issue. Try
   switching to the default twentyten or twentyeleven theme and see if goes away.
   You could also try disabling plugins to see if they’re the culprit. In my case
   it was an issue with a theme.

 * I am getting the same error tonight, been using the same theme and plugins for
   two years…

   uploader. I have not had trouble with site in two years until tonight.

 * .htaccess is a file in the same directory as wp-config.php it tells the web server
   different configurations.
