Thumbs.db won't upload to my host.

You actually don't need those to run MyBulletinBoard.

I think those are hidden files that must of gotten included in with the .zip file.

Your host - http://www.l1h.net, as posted at http://www.mybboard.com/community/showth...hp?tid=577 - does not allow many file types.

Quote:1.2 File extensions - Allowed
- Html, htm
- css
- php
- pak
- mod
- gif, jpeg, png, bmp, and other image extensions
- flash extensions (swf, fla)
- Dreamweaver templates (dwt)

Quote:Not allowed
- Archived files (ie. Zip, Rar, Tar, etc);
Sorry to disappoint people on this, but we have been stung too many times when we allowed these, this is a 100% non-negotiable rule
- Media files;
Including, but not limited too: - Mpg, mov, mp3, wav, ogg
Only was around this is too have the file hosted onto another site and linked. BUT the host MUST have legal permission in which to host that file before you can link it

As far as I know, you should be able to run myBulletinBoard there, however, don't expect much else

So I need to find another host. Alright.

No, not nessasarily (sorry for the spelling)

Thumbs.db is a hidden windows file that is used in xp (not sure about other operating systems) when you have *right click, view, thumbnails* ticked. It is not needed in myBB. So upload everything else and dont worry.
