Ok, first of all i want to thank you for this good free hosting. I'll now explain my problem. I had a site earlier on different hosting and I decided to change it. I registered on yours and then i started backuping all my files including mysql database. I backuped all and re-uploaded all on my new site. I re-uploaded my site(e107), my forum(phpBB) and now I am re-uploading gallery. But now I have a problem. I installed gallery with old database and now I am trying to get back all pictures. But I have problem with uploading pictures. Some pictures have ~ in their name and your server won't upload that files.

For example:

blabla~0.jpg won't upload but blabla0.jpg will upload.

Can you please tell me where's the problem or could you allow that because image filenames are all writen originally in that old mysql database and it seems a pitty if I can't restore all my images in gallery.

Url is b182news.com/gallery

Thank you!

Also, are you maybe going to change our Cpanel in near future, maybe CPanel X? :)

~ is not allowed in file names. I believe it is a file system incompatibility.
We do not provide you with cPanel, it is our own control panel, we will never have cPanel nor cPanel X, sorry, it doesnt hold as many users.

Thanks for comment, but can you somehow turn that option, just to upload my files back? I am not guilty, Coppermine is changing filenames. I need that gallery back on this server. Thank you again!

It is not easy to change the allowed characters.

So no, this will not be changed.
