Making Dir writable by WordPress

[keith smith]

Hi,

I need to make a directory writable so WordPress can upload images to the directory.  I'm thinking I need to change the group ownership of the directory to Apache with the user remaining the same.  In the past I've change the group and ownership to Apache and was blocked from FTP access after that.

Any security issues I need to be aware of?  Other approaches?

Any advice is much welcomed!!  Thank you for your help!!
