Subject: [Leica] Need a web guru for this image file problem?

I am working on some photo articles for my web site and have been stumped by 
the following.  

I am outputting jpg using the Adobe "Save for Web" option.  JPG 70, sRGB, 
600xheight, nothing exotic.  These display fine in Preview, in Photoshop, 
and in web authoring programs.

I am formatting the pictures into Dreamweaver MX docs.

I have checked the docs on KompoZer.  Fine.

So far so good - this has worked hundreds of times in the past.

I upload by FTP (since Dreamweaver crashes-on-connect with OS 10.6)  to the 
correct directories and verify that the files are there.

But when I go to the web page I have uploaded, the images don't show up.  
The text pages display fine.  I have tried it with relative image links, 
absolute image links, and http hotlinking.

Any ideas on what could possibly be going on?  I get a "missing image," and 
when I directly address the picture in a browser, I get nothing but the path 
in the browser window.

Is this a server problem?  This is a Microsoft FTP server and I see that 
KompoZer is using STOR instead of PUT (and reporting a "550 Access is 
Denied", but things are screwy regardless of whether you use PUT or STOR.

Any insight would be appreciated...

Thanks!
Dante
