Hi Gina,

How is your studio going?

On unix systems (such as art.net), filenames can't have spaces
in them. It breaks things. I noticed that you have a file called
"html files". You might want to mv this to html_files with the
rename command in ftp.

rename html\ files html_files

The backslash will let unix know that the space is just a space
and not a delimiter between two file names...

Let me know if you have any questions...

thanks,
