 * I am getting this error:
 * >  Warning: imagepng() [function.imagepng]: Unable to open *//wp-content/uploads/
   > 2012/03/434_Slider-292093_95x54.png’ for writing: Permission denied in *\wp-
   > includes\media.php on line 461
 * For all of the photos on my site. The line referenced is: `if ( !imagepng( $newimage,
   $destfilename ) )`
 * I have confirmed that the correct permissions are set for ALL wp-content/uploads
   folders. I have tried disabling all plugins. I’m stumped! Help please…
