ok i got the f2s site..i went and downloaded a ftp.. now i'm am more confused than i was when i started using flash..how do i begin to get my site up..don't quite understand the whole ftp thing.what do i do first.second.third and so on..
 
thanks melocco...i owe ya.have some we can trade througfh e-mail if you want justlet me know..
 
Scrap what's in the address bar of the browser, and type ftp.oldnewbie.f2s.com replacing oldnewbie by your username on f2s.
It's easier if you open a second browser window while reading this.

You'll end up having a message box that will ask you your username and password, type in those and check remember password.

A new page will open and you'll see a folder with your username. Double click the folder... new page with probably a Welcome.html, that's the default index page.
Bookmark this page so that next time you want to do something you end up here immediately!


Ok! Do that!

B-) "Who's that guy with the shades... What's he trying to prove!”

 
old i'm at a page that says welcome to your website..
something about turn off front page extensions?..ok i get to the log in page..done that..now i'm at --home:virt2001--..has a contact link,database,password,website,e-mail,q&a,toolbox....what from here?????
 
Is this the first time you've been to your site?

You should'nt be there according to me!

Did you type this exactly, just changing the username.

ftp.?????????.f2s.com replacing ????????? by your username on f2s.
No http or www!

Why don't you start over!

;-)
 
typed in ftp.endangeredgraphics.f2s.com ...says page cannot be found
 
Just click on your link and it brought me directly where I want you to be with the message box.
Try doing the same...
if not try typing

ftp://ftp.endangeredgraphics.f2s.com/

sheesh..now iu'm at the page but it is blank..
ftp://ftp.endangeredgraphics.f2s.com is blank no welcomeindex.html
 
There's no folder with
If there is, double click it than you should see the welcome html.
If you don't see any of this...
Did you register today?
or maybe you do have to visit your site(as they told you on their email) to set up this directory... And that's where you were a while ago...

Maybe you should try doing that again, if you don't see anything!

Going out for 10 minutes,

Be back shortly when hopefully you'll have this sorted out!
