hi - I've looked and looked and can't find this anywhere else - if it is please forgive me!

I was trying to sort out why one of my members can't upload and managed to lock myself out of the admin pages... how can I restore my rights? there is no one else who can go in and let me back... please help - getting pretty desperate now..

you can edit your record directly in the database if you have access

how to do that depends on whether you use the Photopost user system or a forum

Yes doing it by PHPMYADMIN would be the way to do it setting the cpaccess field to 1 for the administrators usergroup in your pp_usergroups table.
