if i use the images path and put it like this in the browser:
http://www.candleshopcreations.com/files/images/thumbnails/bathbear1_t.jpg
the image will show.
so this is a permissions problem? the .htaccess in files is deny. is that wrong? i did not change this from before and it worked fine.
the images directory .htaccess file says:
Options -Indexes
Allow from all
should there be an .htaccess in the thumbnail and other dir?
