Can you tell us specifically what you did?
I am a tad confused or lost here... and this is an interesting Centos app of
course.  :-)

I think the default setting for httpd is not to display the contents of a
directory especially if there is no index file.

I'm not sure what I can add here. I created a directory on my webserver that is under my /var/www/html/images directory. I created a proftpd profile where that directory was the default upload directory for that user (profile). The images can be read by apache and displayed in a webpage or email as I was wanting to do.
