I am using wordpress 3.0

I keep getting this when I try to upload images:

“communication.png” has failed to upload due to an error
Unable to create directory /home/randallt/public_html/marriageanchors.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07. Is its parent directory writable by the server?

I haven't uploaded anything this month yet so the folder doesn't even exist yet. I checked the permissions on all of the parent folders and they are set at 755 and the other folders for previous months are set to 777.
I also checked the media settings and the upload location is right. any ideas?

Are you hosting this on wordpresses servers or your own? If it's your own, than that directory name doesn't look right.
