Midnight, please post the URL to your board so we can take a look.

http://www.classic-ringmaster.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi
user:test1 pass:MUR4ZV

note i can goto ftp side and select an image file and view from ftp and it will come up and display it
the board works fine just no images will display

I'm assuming that this directory exists?

http://www.classic-ringmaster.com/ubb/

That's where it's looking for your images. In your board config file your path would look like this:

/www/c/yourusername/htdocs/ubb

The 'c' would be your first letter of your username.

The board can't find the images. It's either a path problem or the directory doesn't exist. That's really the only two things it could be.

ok i think that is y i have a problem then my
path is root /ubb
not root/htdoc/ubb
why does it have to be in htdos
excuse my ignorance
lol

The /htdocs is your 'public' directory, where your viewable HTML files and images would go. Anything outside that would not be viewable.
