I downloaded version 1.4.1 from www.pixelpost.org

As I was reading the READ ME files for initial direction, I noticed that I don't have the folders mentioned. My site is www.shuttercandy.com
I loaded pixelpost directly onto it. Should I have /includes and /admin?

I don't have either...is this correct??

Just in case, I deleted my current .zip file and tried downloading again two more times. Same problem. I don't see admin or includes folders.

Did I download the wrong thing?

download it, unzip it, edit includes/pixelpost.php to match your database settings, uploadit all via ftp...create the images and thumbnails folder, chmod to 777 then go to where you installed it in the borwser ie yoursite.com/pixelpost/admin/install.php and follow the instructions.

Blinking,

Thanks for the help. The problem is, for whatever reason, I don't have the includes folder...meaning that my file was located on www.shuttercandy.com/pixelpost.php

Same with www.shuttercandy.com/install.php

No /includes/pixelpost.php OR admin/install.php

Not a problem initially, but I think it won't work in the long run because there is so much code looking for the extensions.

Is there a problem with the template on the homepage of www.pixelpost.org?

delete everything you have, and start from scratch

busyone,

as you call yourself busy, take some time, read about the steps, do everything in a quiet mood, so many people managed to upload and install PixelPost and they all had the necessary folders after the installation,
they managed to create the image- and the thumbnails-folder and they managed to make them writeable

so, take a free mind and start again, I am sure it will work
