I'd agree with mindfrost. It would be easiest (once it is all uploaded again) to set everything to read only for the public account. Then make an additional account that has full access. The problem then becomes that no one can add to the FTP without going through the admin account. I think the FTP is still on Dreamhost, right Mike? If so, then anonymous FTP is only $3.95/month or $47.40/year. This would allow for an upload only account, that no one can delete from. An admin could move approved stuff into a second folder which is download only. Again, no one could delete stuff. The admin account would be the only on that could make big changes.
