let me rephrase my starting post in this thread.
when i use the upload file option on the site (not batch add), i go in and i select the number of files i want to upload, and then when i hit continue and the next page loads, at the top above the header it says,
Warning: is_dir(): Stat failed for ./albums/edit/. (errno=13 - Permission denied) in /home/tempting/public_html/upload.php on line 432
Warning: filemtime(): Stat failed for ./albums/edit/. (errno=13 - Permission denied) in /home/tempting/public_html/upload.php on line 440
Warning: unlink(./albums/edit/.): Permission denied in /home/tempting/public_html/upload.php on line 453

Warning: unlink(./albums/edit/..): Permission denied in /home/tempting/public_html/upload.php on line 453
then after they upload, on the page where you usually select where they go, it says at the top above the header

and it says the files i tried to upload failed/or had errors.
File Name URL Error Message
1. top.jpg Impossible to move.
2. showtimedvd.jpg Impossible to move.
3. green-03.gif Impossible to move.
i dont know if that helps more, but its a better description.
