    Are you storing images in the database or file system? If file system, did you specify a valid directory, and give Tiki full write access to the directory?

    I am storing them in a directory. Nothing has changed since I last upload photos except the loss of a domain name but I changed all the urls.

    Are you trying to upload from work? There may be a limit on uploads on your network. Try uploading a really small picture (under 100kb) and see if that works. Or see if you can upload a picture from your home computer.

    I think I figured out the problem but can someone remind me of what directories need the permissions changed to 777?

    There is a list hereQuestion. If you are saving your images in a different directly, Tiki will also need write access to that directory, too.

    I am trying to upload images and not sure where to create the directory.

    Do I create a new folder and put it in the root folder. There is already an image, images, image2 and img folders. Not sure what the difference is between them all....but do I just make another image folder and put it here?

    I know it is probably a silly question....just want to make sure I put it in the write spot....
