 * I’m having a problem that all files I upload through wordpress are throwing a
   403 forbidden error. Is this completely up to my server’s permissions, or are
   there some things I need to tweak in WP itself? (I’m not the server guy, but 
   we do control the server ourselves)

 * Check this out. Sound like a permission problem. I would start there first.
