Another plus, is that it solved other problems I was having with my template. Thanks! This solved the problem I had when trying to upload an image.

Looked to see if there was a / in front of wp-content, there wasn't. I'm at my wits end with this.

Go back to the settings page. If the directory is listed as "{{/wp-content/uploads}}" change it top "{{wp-content/uploads}}" (get rid of the first slash) and it works.

I have checked permissions, and they're fine - set to 755. I also checked the file path in the WP config menu, and it's fine. The problem is that a new file (for the current month) can't be created in the uploads/2010 folder. I see that the owner of the uploads folder is my username. Any thoughts ?

It was driving me insane. I couldn't work it out. As soon as I read your info I laughed. I couldn't believe I didnt think of that myself. After almost 4days of trying to figure it out. Maybe I should have done a google search earlier (but us men don't even stop to ask for direcetions). I never had the problem before so I just thought I missed something in the set up. Once again, thank you so much. Kind Regards, J P Baker Australia. Thank you so much for this information. It was driving me insane. I couldn’t work it out. As soon as I read your info I laughed.
