Hrm, well. I created two folders to fix the folder creating problem.
I now have an upload folder which is the default, and the ftp folder for mass uploading. I've uploaded 700 images to the ftp folder and now I am adding them at 25 images at a time, and they are getting added to the upload folder without any problems. The only thing is that the images in the ftp folder are not erasing themselfs after being added. Normal, or did I miss something?
Now I am getting a blank page after a few pages

God this is driving me nuts.
