Good Morning:

I am looking to create a thumbnail from an uploaded image, and then save it to 
a directory.

I don't have any problem with the image functions, and can successfully create 
the thumbnail and push it to the browser or, as is currently set up, store the 
data in a database.

What I want to do instead, however, is take that dynamically created thumbnail 
and write it to a folder on the server.

If I simply write the file, however, it appears I need to have a folder chmod'd 
world read/writable for the process to work.  My network guys do not want this.

I tried the FTP functions, which work great for copying a file that already 
exists somewhere into another folder, but I can't seem to get it to recognize 
the buffer as a valid source file location...

Is there a way to use a php FTP function to FTP the file out of the buffer to a 
directory on the server, or some other way to write a file to a folder without 
making that folder 0777?

If the server is apache make the directory you are writing images out
to owned by apache and you'll be all set.
