The exact procedure depends which version of WinZip you are using.  I have version 8.

Double-click the ZIP archive to bring it up in WinZIP.  Without selecting any files, click the "Extract" button at the top.  You then need to put the files in a place where they can easily be accessed.  I just put them on into a temp folder on my desktop.  You can copy-and-paste this, which creates a "temp" folder on your desktop:  %userprofile%/desktop/temp/

If you accidently select any files, WinZIP will only extract the files you've selected.

If you have a new version of Wax, the files in the "oekaki" folder must be uploaded to the server.  For a patch, files in the "overwrite" folder must be copied over the files on the server.

If you need help with FTP, there's a basic tutorial in the manual, in the "documentation" folder.

What the flippin' heck?  GTK+ is a graphics toolkit used for writing desktop software and has nothing to do with any Wax Poteto files.  Is WinZIP giving you that error?

If you're having problems with WinZIP, you can try PowerArchiver (v6 is free).

ok that didnt work. forgot, this is a forum..

Ohh... OK.  On your own computer, PHP scripts don't actually do anything.  PHP scripts can only be "run" on a web server, so you have to upload the files to a server to use them.  For some reason, photo software on your computer is trying to use files with the ".php" file extension.

In reality, you don't need to know any HTML to install the board.  You just need to know how to upload files with FTP and set file permissions.  This is explained in the Wacintaki manual, in the "documentation" folder of the ZIP file.

I'd have no problem installing it for you, but I'll need your server login and some other information so I can set up the database and stuff.  If you're OK with that, e-mail me, and I'll tell you exactly what information I'll need.  After the board is installed, most setttings can be edited later, but some things must be done right the first time.

i replied. did you get it?

if that doesn't work ill try using my dads yahoo.

In my FTP program, "evaluv.ev.funpic.org" is the host (I don't have to type in the "ftp://" at the beginning).

When you login, you will be a the root folder, so oekaki files just go into "oekaki".  What program are you using to transfer files?  If you're trying to use a web browser, you can login, but I believe it is read-only.
