Hi Joel,
I'm going to guess your problem is one of permissions? Are you actually
getting to the 'upload' folder?
If you end up with an external path I would use some sort of config settings
to control where that path sits. The main thing you need to worry about is
that the Web Account has rights to write the file into htis upload
directory. This means ASPNET or NETWORK SERVICE usually...
