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:

However, the website still isn't looking like the home page of the template. Please help. Thanks. Home page of template:  http://www.templatehelp.com/preset/pr_preview.php?i=33237&pr_code=I9QY73x2997udAVuadw72Bc3Bxbp8G

Thanks, I really want to start work on this! :)

Hi- It's templatehelp.com, is that the same thing? I've been talking to their support all week, it just takes them a really long time to respond.

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

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."

But again I thank the experts for their help!
