  Okay… I had a blog running on WordPress for a while, it had some pictures, some clips from Blip and Youtube referenced. I had PDFs available too.

  http://tommyw.wordpress.com/

  Then I got a domain and installed wordpress on it

  http://www.tinyplanet.eu

  My blogging software MacJournal found the new blog, and uploaded the posts BAR any attached images.

  I looked in the contol panel and found wp-content/uploads listed as the uploads folder.
  I created the uploads folder in my wp-content folder. I gave it permissions of 666

  If I try to post via MacJournal I get an error that it can’t upload the image but it can upload the text.
  If I try to post via the WP form, it says that it can’t create the relevant folders within the uploads folder.

  Anybody got an idea of what’s wrong here?

  Is there a step by step guide to images etc in WP?

  Relative newcomer to WP so appreciate any help.
