wordpress changing host breaks image links

The images were all in the same location as the original server, when you clicked on them, they load, though they display a broken link.

I gave in and transferred it to a namecheap account (the VPS is just used for testing and development, if it worked, yay, if not, no big loss) everything seems to work fine on it. Not too sure what the issue was, I’m assuming that I set my server up incorrectly, I think file permissions incorrectly set, but I can’t be sure.

Not an answer, but a solution isn’t necessary at this moment.

Thanks anyway

edit:
I checked the logs and it does indeed seem to be a permissions issue:

[Mon Jul 22 16:36:16 2013] [error] [client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] PHP Warning: touch(): Utime failed: Permission denied in /home/user/www/wp-content/themes/showtime_v3.3/scripts/timthumb.php on line 189

Though why new permissions are required I dont know…
