images not displayed

sorry to be a continual pain and before i am told to search for the answer - i have, but canot find a simplified answer.
i have uploaded the image i need for product but whatever i do i cannot get the image to show. The tutorial is less than helpful as most things it is not designed for my level of ignorance. i am quickly believing my knowledge is less than the norm newbie

Are you assigning the image using the product information screen? If you haven't tried that, use it and see if it works that way. If you're uploading the image via FTP you might be putting it in the wrong folder.

HTH,

I am copying the image into my pictures from a website then uploading it through the servage ftp. your right in that it is very confusing and frustrating. i have purchased the zencart manual but it doesnt cover this problem. When i have sorted this i will buy your tutorial on templates, but i cannot do anything until i get my images sorted

First, let's keep the topic in one thread-

What is your URL? What is the path to an image you have uploaded? What FTP client are you using?

[oakwoodevents]

The url is http://www.mysticcharms-shop.co.uk/e.../htl-anger.jpg

destination C:\Documents and Settings\Derek Fitch\My Documents\My Pictures\mysticcharms\htl-anger.jpg

error messages are Error: Destination not writeable /home81a/sub002/sc44712-UYGT/uk-hypnotherapy.eu/images/

Error: Catalog images directory is not writeable: /home81a/sub002/sc44712-UYGT/uk-hypnotherapy.eu/images/

i use the servage ftp but also have cuteftp

i do appreciate any help you might be able to offer

755 is not "world-writable". Your webserver most likely deals with the 3rd digit and not the first digit.
That's why it's usually mentioned that you want "777" to be the permission level set on all your images folders.
For your server, try 777 instead of 755.

Here's an FAQ explaining what the numbers mean:

and what happens if when on the add products page in the admin and you use the browse function to grab the image and add it to the product? I am just trying to clarify the problem

[oakwoodevents]

when i preview it there is no picture

at this point to really see what is going on I would need to have access.
