 * For some reason I can’t get this to work. I keep getting this error:
 * It doesn’t look like you can use the file upload feature at this time because
   the directory you have specified (/home/stripedpink/stripedpinkbunny.com/blog/
   wp-content ) doesn’t appear to be writable by WordPress. Check the permissions
   on the directory and for typos.
 * Now, I’ve CHMODed the directy 777. So why am I still getting this error?

 * I got that error when the path was entered incorrectly. Go to Options -> Miscellaneous.
   Does the Destination directory field match the recommended path just below it?
