So your suggestion is that I should create an ftp account and use this
account to create folder structure for user right?

I still not sure about the permission to set.
If I set 0755 how do OS know who is the owner?

May be I think too much. But let say I use ftp account: ftp1 to create
folder structure
That mean owner is ftp1 user right? And then later I use PHP file upload
script to upload image to user folders what will happen?
