Thank you for the Video Tutorial Dina. Was quite helpful!
Hi A!
Most welcome! I have checked the URL you have in your site’s link, however it looks like you install it inside “blog” folder? because when people type in thecrunge.in, it will show your cgi-bin–and the other files :-)
I hope you notice it..
Thanks for the nice words,
Happy New Year
