I think the process is still the same as long as your server has set the write properties “on”.

Goodluck!

Ahmed, I got the first one to work fine, but I had some major problems getting it there. It turns out that I forgot to CHMOD the folder that I am saving the files to… if that isn’t the problem, then make sure the paths are accurate.
