I am really new at this and I always try to read any and all info before I ask anything. Here go's should the database be created before uploading. I am using mysql..

Thanks Starslider
You need a empty DB before you start, during the installation it will ask you for entering your DBname, User & Password. After that it will create all the necessary tables + imports data [theme/css].

Ok so the db should be created, but it just needs to be empty right?
