 * I’m fairly new to WordPress, and have tried several times unsuccessfully to upload
   images from my computer to use as headers. I’m using the Weaver theme. I keep
   on getting the message ‘missing a temporary folder’, but am not being told what
   to do about this.
    Searching for this problem on the forums brings up different
   responses.
 * I had WordPress installed through my host (GoDaddy); I didn’t install it manually.
   I use FileZilla as my FTP client.
 * Advice on what to do would be appreciated.
