Hi, I have read the documentation and i can't figure out how to get coppermine going. :\'( Is anyone willing to walk me through it? It will be greatly appreciated! This is for my fan site and I'd like to have it as nice as this one...   http://gallery.hilary-duff.net/  I know HTML and CSS I just can't get it up. Please help...

What part of the installation instructions are you having trouble with?

[danieljradcliffe]

Well I need to download it, but I do'nt know where to save it, and i have an HTML editor, not an FTP program



and your been theme cracks me up!

Try the tutorial - link at top of the page.

[danieljradcliffe]

I did that, but I don't have an FTP program  :-\\

[Nibbler]

Download one then.

Well, my computer has 0% free disk space, I don't think its going to fit on there...Can i do it through an HTML editor?

You can use your browser for FTP client.

In the addressbar, enter
ftp://yourusername@domainname.com

The exact names may differ based on your host, who you should ask. If you can't drag and drop files in internet explorer, you have to change a setting in it. Firefox requires an extension.

Oh thats neat! Now say i saved the CMG to the desktop, do i just drag it into that folder? all it has in it is index.html but i have a whole site built...

Wait a sec, you have 0% free hard disk space? You shouldn't be worrying about setting up coppermine, but you should stop your box from suffocating. If you run an older OS, your box is about to stop working from one moment to the other (as soon as there's not enough space left for the page file), newer perating systems like Windows XP will be able to copy with this, but will get very sluggish. You should definitely free some hard drive space (delete some data and/or buy a new hard drive), an ftp app won't need much room.
