How do i adjust the permissions?

Using CHMOD in your FTP client.

[Wiki: Chmod] (Broken link, head over to docs.mybb.com instead)

Ok i found it

That depends on the FTP client, so you should search your FTP client's documentation for instructions about that.

But it say----->

550 Could not change perms on uploads: Operation not permitted

Then you should ask your webhost how to allow the webserver to write to those files.

Oh ok thanks for th help.
