Aha. I had created a new uploads directory and gave it chmod 776
before trying to upload anything, and so it didn't tell me anything.
I just made a note in the UploadsAdmin docs about that. It's really
easy to miss, and a bit counterintuitive (you want uploads? declare
the directory, but don't create it :) Also, I might have
misunderstood something, so please check the 'Important' note.
Cheers,
Radu
