No.

Check in your template (Admin CP) if your image directory is following the correct path.

Make sure you uploaded them in "Auto" not Binary. It will auto-detect whether ASCII or Binary is needed.
No; it aint suppose to be like that =P
Is your ./cache/themes/ folder CHMOD 777 ?
Is your imagepath filled in correctly in your ThemeManager ? Themes - Options (Edit Theme) - Image Directory
If what Lex said is set correctly, check your Board URL setting; generally speaking if the toplink images are broken too it's a wrong Board URL setting. However, seeing as you've covered up your URL, we have no way of telling you what to set it to...

It was in auto when I uploaded everything. Although I uploaded everthing (folder included) so there was nothing at all on my site, its was still hostgator default page. Now I've moved all those files (that were in the upload and document folder) directly into my public_html directory in my cpanel. So now instead of having nothing, I have a screwed up looking forum (baby steps) =D

My themes folder is configured to 777. My image path filled... eh... I'm not sure where my thememanger is - after I find it how to I make sure its filled in the correct path?

Hey, I would have just left it open, but I thought It may be advertising and I was trying to repect this site =D. The url = www.crackforums.net/index.php Though, when I just type crackforums.net it doesn't load the index.php, I have to manually type it in.

Thanks all =)
Yeah, your Board URL setting is http://www.crackforums.net/forums and needs to be just http://www.crackforums.net

As for posting a URL being advertising, if it's for support, it's not a problem Smile

I think I got it settings.php then edit $settings['cookiedomain'] = ".www.crackforums.net";

Now i'm trying to figure out how to get my forum to auto load index.php. Otherwise it goes straight to mybb interface and I have to manually type in www.crackforums.net/index.php instead of just crackforums.net

ok i got it. I had to make index.php priority over index.html... or the other way around - I don't remember =D
No that's the cookie domain, not the Board URL, you shouldn't edit settings.php to edit settings. Save your settings in the ACP otherwise they'll revert back to the old settings.

It loads fine for me when I don't have the index.php.
