No problem. After years of learning this myself I am just happy when I actually do know the answer! Everyone here has taught me so much. Good luck with your project.
Or, go buy a skin from smacklan (which are fabulous, I own 4 from him) I am actually on their right now looking for something for a new project.
Ah, okay...I just clicked around a bit more on the link you gave, and found the screenshots for uploading a style. Yes, that is what it looks like and what I'm doing. The problem I need help with is how exactly to upload the images to my FTP through my cPanel. When I try to add them to the public_html section, under the Images folder, every individual image opens up and I mean there must be at least a hundred individual files. Is this really the only way to upload them? I even tried uploading a couple to see if they would show up, and nothing. I've posted on the forum for my host (siteground) but no responses yet...
I'm in the admin panel but I'm confused about exactly what you're asking/mean. I'm sorry, very appreciative of your help and time, just really not grasping this. I'm an otherwise intelligent and articulate being, lol!
I use SmartFTP and it is really quick. Less than a minute or two for most folders. You need your ftp addy, user name and pass to use SmartFTP

Once you are logged into your site with your FTP client, double click on the public_html folder to open it. If you have created a separate folder for your forums (like forum) then double click to open it. Once you are where you need to be to upload the images (depending on where they need to go) then click the entire image folder on your local hard drive and upload it to the server.
Don't feel bad.. that is the exact same problem that I'm having. I'm not sure how to upload the images and there has to be another way other than uploading them one by one.

Thank you.. I finally got that far. After the file is uploaded there, what next? Do I need to download or am I done? Sorry for sounding so dumb.
You guys are great and thank you.

When I click the image folder, it opens up to a zillion individual files...it won't let me click on the entire image folder without opening it all up. :\
Racecar, we'll get this figured out! Thanks so much for your help, everyone! (((hugs)))

don't "double click" it, just highlight it What ftp client are you using?
