Change CHMOD in Properties

Hi,

There is a folder "html" with CHMOD 2750.
In this folder I have folder "images" with CHMOD 2755.

In Local folder I have folder "new_folder". If I upload this folder to server folder "images" (or just create it), CHMOD will be 2755.
But if I thereafter change CHMOD to 2777 or 2XXX, CHMOD will be just 777 or XXX.

Is it OK?

I hope you will understand my bad English.

The default permission is set by your server. Usually there is a setting (on the server side) called umask whichs controls the permissions/mode for newly created files/folders.
