I am following the install instructions for 1.3.

The 'albums' directory (located in the directory where you uploaded Coppermine) should be writable in order to allow pictures upload. Use your FTP program to change its mode to 777.

The 'userpics' directory (located in the 'albums' directory on your server) should be writable in order to allow pictures upload. Use your FTP program to change its mode to 777.

The 'edit' directory (located in the 'albums' directory on your server) should be writable in order to allow pictures upload. Use your FTP program to change its mode to 777.

I understand how to change the permissions on the directories so that they are writeable.  However, i'm not sure if i need to just change the directory, or the directory and all contents (the files as well) to 777. 

Should i be making the directory and the files within the directories (albums, include, edit, etc) ALL 777, or just the actual directory??
Thanks for your help.

You just need to CHMOD to the directories and not the files inside it.
