Hello,

Im having problems with the game upload. In particular with the files. I uploaded the folder of a game that contains a PHP/SWF and 2 GIF files. The folder name was the game name. I tried uploading it and it shows up on the game category list but doesnt actually exist when you try to play it.

Are we supposed to upload the gifs to the upload/images folder and the same for the .php file to the game_files folder and then the swf to the swf folder.

Does the image file path have to be full as it wont allow me to add the full url....

please would you explain and maybe give an example!

Thanks
