I know this is late in the discussion. But, I wanted to present the
above modification as a possibility.
I like the other paragraphs.
The main impetus for even suggestion and alteration is to create a
situation in which the upload process is basically the same. The only
difference being the target directory on the server.
I think more new users are more comfortable renaming folders on their
computers than via FTP. (This is based on nothing but a gut feeling.)
