generated cache folder permissions problem

i can’t believe i’ve just found this - amazing work lumis - I think a trip to your tip box could be in order!

The extension is mostly working great for me, though I do have a problem relating to the cache folder:

When the extension creates the folder automatically it’s default owner and group are ‘apache’ and the permissions Octal is ‘755’ - which means the extension cannot write the generated images to the folder and no thumbs are generated.

If I manually create a cache folder with permissions set to 777 - everything works and the images are written to the folder perfectly.

I’m guessing this is more a problem with my server config?
To be honest my knowledge of server permissions is pretty limited - I think i’ll go have a read up tonight.

Does anybody know what is causing this problem and how to get the generated cache folder to have the needed permissions?

Thanks in advance

EDIT: This is not my office… I think I’ve posted this is the wrong place! - reposted to here
