Just moved my site to a new server and with the new setup, i notice that anytime i upload a new image, i get the noboby apache user and group ownership, which causes the image caching to not work. now when i visit the site, the pics get regenerated every time and it loads very slowly because of it.

i've seen others with the same problem, but i've yet to find an answer through searching the forums. i've also had to set the bmz_cache folder to 777 , and if i clear the 0, 1, 2 etc folders out, they get recreated, but nothing gets put into those individual folders.

any help would be much appreciated, as our old server crashed and we had to go with a new host...would very much like to get our site loading up much quicker.

thanks!
