Re: what has gone wrong? HELP!

I can't see your site, perhaps due to a DNS problem on my end.
But, based on your post I'm guessing that the problem you've got is related to this: https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=235

Drbyte,
the layout of the store is there, what's missing is the correct colouring and the images, the buttons have lines missing and even the banners are garbled. It just looks awful.
Do you still think that could be a problem with the host server? i am sure that they are using Linux servers.

Re: what has gone wrong? HELP!

This is odd. Basically your site is functioning perfectly except that it's not displaying your any of your images: template or product. It is partially displaying your banner images.

As far as I can see the images are there but corrupted. How did you move them to your site? Is it possible that you moved them as ascii files rather than binary files (if you used FTP this may be a preference setting)?

Re: what has gone wrong? HELP!

"I think you might have hit the nail on the head".
Does this mean that i have to upload everything again but, in binary. Or, is it ok just to upload the images folder?
What other folders would i need to upload?
Do i delete the folders first or, overwrite?
BTW i am using Filezila.

Your help will be most greatly apreciated,

FTP the images folder as a start to see if that's the problem.

Unless you've changed the default settings, Filezilla should have recognized the images.

:clap:
Thats better!
ftp the images folder making sure that filezilla was not set to ASCII. So, i am now getting the images apart from the header image, and i am still missing some buttons; previous and next. Not sure where they are located.
Anyway, have a look. And i will keep serching for the folder.
