Hi!
I want to upload all my assets in a “uploads” folder in my site root, but when I upload a new asset (an image for example) it puts the thumbnail of it in a “assets_c” folder at the root of my site, and I don’t like it. It looks like this:
I can’t find any information to easily change that.
Thank you for your help!

You could probably do the following and be fine. Obviously, though, you'd be doing this at your own risk:
1) Move all of the assets_c files into uploads/
2) Delete assets_c
3) Symlink assets_c to uploads/
Thumbnail images that are created from inserting an image into a post and choosing to create a thumbnail are generated and placed in the same location as the original image. Automatically generated thumbnails created through MT tags are generated and placed in an asset_c ("c" for cache) directory. This folder name can be configured using the "AssetCacheDir" configuration setting.
Thank you, it's working fine now!
Actually all thumbnails (auto-created and user-created) are placed into asset_c, regardless of which upload screen is used.
