Help with joomla template
Hi, I bought a Joomla template and it's installed. www dot uncle will productions dot com. fresh joomla 1.6 installation and the template is a 1.6 template.
But I'm trying to follow the readme file, and step 7 says: 7. Images preview
To display the same images as on the preview page of your template, please, go to the
“template/theme###/stories ” folder of your Joomla! installation and copy all the images and
folders to the “images/stories” folder of your Joomla! installation.
But there is no “template/theme###/stories ” folder..
I found this that says to upload the template picture directly to the joomla images folder:

It looks like my comment from last night has disappeared. I will repeat. In Joomla 1.6 there is no story folder. You have to create it.
I quote: "The very first thing you might notice -- the stories folder is gone! You may now upload your images directly to the images directory.
Of course, if you're attached to the old stories folder, or if you're moving a site over from Joomla 1.5, you could always create a stories folder."

There's no story folder in the joomla installation or the template. Very confusing! :)
