Hi Eric, Using "#updir#\small" is fine, unless you're on a Unix box, in which case you'd want "#updir#/small".
The most likely reason for the error is that the "C:\CFusionMX\wwwroot\portplus\images\2" directory doesn't exist....I imagine you made "..\images" by hand, but if the "2" is a variable specific to this image, or a page, or something like that, you'll need to use CFDIRECTORY to create it before storing the file in it.
