Thanks, so that NetFTP is linked up to DBSpot? Because The on in the email was called C-Panel. And what's the server?

Okay, I uploaded all my files on to the net2ftp, now how do I actually "turn" it into a website, all it does is have the directory on the page with the subdirectory and txt files, html files and img files, so how do I compose this is into my webpage?

the main page needs to be either...

index.php > if none is found..
index.html > if none is found
index.htm

so, i'd assume your files are standard htm, rename your homepage one to index.htm or index.html

I changed the font color. Anyone know how I could go about mouse over links (the hovery ones), and make them stay silver, even if you've visted the page? Because the links with an underline and being blue is just god awful.
