Using a folder above web root is suggested.

*shane801 clicks the duh button!

I'll take that as a plea for help.

As an example, cpanel servers use your login name for the home folder name. When you login to FTP you should go to /home/sitename

So in that folder create a folder named vbgimages and set the attributes to 777. Then point your vbgconfig.php to /home/sitename/vbgimages

Hope that helps.

Thank you. I realized it after you replied, I was pretty sure that was the way to point to it, put not positive. I am a cop, not a coder (wish I was though).

It's ok we all have our specialities. Holler if we can help more.
