  I just recently upgraded my hosting service and exported my blog to a new database. Now when I try to upload a photo I get an error message saying wp cannot create the directory and is it’s parent directory writable by the server? Any ideas how I should fix this would be greatly appriciated.

  I’m sorry but that blog is not a free blog from and being free hosted by wordpress.COM so we cannot help you with it. WordPress.COM blogs and wordpress.org installs operate on different code. The correct support forum to get support for that blog is here > http://wordpress.ORG/support

  For more clarity please read the sticky post at the head of this forum or the summary provided by Staff in the support documentation.
