Maybe I'm not explaining myself well. In any case, let me make one last attempt, and then I promise I'll drop this.

FUD built a feature whereby any forum member can go to their profile and upload a picture (avatar). That picture gets written to the /images/custom_avatar directory with that forum member's assigned number as the file name. In our case, that file is being written with a permission of 600. This permission does not allow that avatar to be viewed by any forum member.

This situation isn't limited to custom avatars. For whatever reason, all images added using FUD programs are written as 600. That includes smileys, avatars, custom_avatars.

Clearly, that can't be your intention to offer those features but require Admins to chmod each and every file to 644. And I know for a fact this used to work just fine. I'm also sure you'd have heard from other people besides me if they had to go into the File Manager to chmod every image added.

What could it be about my environment that's causing this?

For your information, once again we re-installed FUD forum 2.3.8 from scratch. The rest of the environment at our webhost is:

Operating System: Linux
Apache Version: 1.3.27 (Unix)
PHP Version: 4.3.1
Mysql Version: 4.0.12

Even if you don't have an answer, I appreciate your effort.

Thanks
