When I tried to add an attachment to my post this message appeared. Could not find anywhere to actually contact the board admin so thought I would post it here. The requested file upload failed because suitable permissions have not been enabled on the 'uploads' directory. Please contact the board administrator and inform them of this error.

I was trying to upload a JPG photo I thought it would be easier for people to see my problem if they could try to open the photo. Perhaps the problem was because the photo apparently is damaged

I just double-checked the permissions and everything is correct.

I'm sure that's the problem. We restrict uploading to certain file types, and if it was damaged, it likely couldn't be recognized as an approved type.
