I am not familiar with open game panel, however the error (553 Permission Denied) is related to FTP.

It means that you don't have write permission on the directory/folder you are attempting to write to.

Make sure that the username you are logged in through in FTP has write/edit permissions on the directory/folder you are uploading to.
