 * I am trying to change my header from within the dashboard and I keep getting 
   this message. Unable to create directory /home/tvuhusb/public_html/wp-content/
   uploads/2011/06. Is its parent directory writable by the server?
 * The folder wp-content has permission 755. Which seems good enough to me.
 * Any ideas?

 * Check your uploads folder exists on server, then apply permission 777 to that
   folder and try again.
 * otherwise, go into the uploads folder and check whether /2011 exists, then check
   if /06 exists. If not, create these folders and see if problem is still there.
