When I get into command line FTP, I can't seem to upload any html files to the workspace folder thingy. This is a big problem cause I can't put up my indextemplate thing. Any help?

We get this a lot. I suggest using a GUI FTP Client. Some suggestions include:
Bulletproof FTP
CuteFTP
Flash FXP
Leaf FTP (I think)

There's more but I'm quite lazy today. If it still doesn't work with a GUI client, check your ASCII/Binary connections.

Pardon me if I sound a bit ignorant, but how do you get those?

half a dozen others. Don't use IE's built in FTP client, use http://siteadmin.keenspace.com/cgi-bin/web-ftp.cgi if you have to use the web browser.

IE has a tendancy to destroy peoples sites.

Thank you! Thank you sooooooo much!! *hugs* Now, I have one more question: if you're doing html on certain pictures, would you use the same html as normal, or is there some special code you have to use?
Thanks!

What? like IMG tags?

To link to an image:
<img src="mypicture.png" width="256" height="256" border="0" alt="My picture" />

To link to another page:
<a target="_top" href="pagetwo.html">Next page!</a>

To link to another page with an image
<a target="_top" href="kitty.html"><img src="kitty.png" width="64" height="64" border="0" alt="My kitty!" /></a>

The width and height are important to prevent the image from being streteched or squished. They are are also important to make the page render faster. The alt tag is optional, but should be present for accessability reasons. The border="0" is to get rid of any image border (especially if it's a link to somewhere else.)
