Cant view picture after upload

Hello,
when I post a new article with pictures in it, for some reason picture cannot be displayed. It was uploaded ok, but then it's not displayed. When I try to download it to my comp, I can't see it either. I think there is something wrong in the upload process.
Do you have any ideas what went wrong?
Thanx in advance.

my guess is that you are not using the proper syntax to incorporate the image in your story.
for example, should be like [image1_left] and not [imagePicName.jpg_left]

Sounds like the permissions are not set correctly on the images/articles folder and contents. That would be the first place to start checking.

Hello,
Thanx for the answers. I don't think that permissions are the issue, because the picture is uloaded, I can seeit in the folder, and anyway I set the folder to 777 permission. Also, it's not the syntax problem, because when I access the picture directly, I can't see it either.

if you are trying to access the image directly, keep in mind that the image has been renamed by the upload process--so it still may be a syntax issue.
pics are name by topic, e.g., general_1, general_2, announcements_1, announcements_2, etc...
