There probably is a http://php.net/chown, but unless you are running Apache as 'root' (DON'T DO THAT!) then it won't work. However, you can use http://php.net/chmod to make the file readable by you as well as the 'www' user. It is very frightening, however, to see the group 'wheel' on the file, since 'wheel' is usually reserved for users that can 'su' to root, and having uploaded image files in that group just doesn't feel right. -- Some people have a "gift" link here.
