Now stop laughing at me :P

I did these things :

1) modified pixelpost.php
2) uploaded pixelpost
3) created folders images and thumbnails and changed permissions to 777
4) surfed into install.php
5) created table

then a power shortage came and I lost my Internet connection for a while.

My question is... how do I continue Installation ?

just delete the folders for pixelpost and
re install it
it should be fine after that

I've tried that.

When I tried to create the tables again (in install.php) it said pixelpost_config already exists.

your going to have to edit/delete that database that you set.
if you cant edit your database for some reason

an easy way to do this is in the pixelpost.php

file

where it says

prefix " pixelpost_ "

edit to something like " pixelpost_2_ "

this should do it. im not an expert but I knew it worked for me.
