Hey Ya'll

I'm sure this is just a simply over-sight on my part, as I am new to this...   I installed dnn thru the control panel on godaddy to my site.  I'm not sure if my problem is related to the sticky post or now.  I haven;t had any errors .  I was following some instructions to modify my css and I needed to find the skins folder.  When I went to the admin-files the only folders listed were portal and portal/cache.  When I went to host-files, the only folder listed was the host root.  I then installed dnn on a local computer, and I found all of the sub-folders (including my skins) listed just as they should be.  My question is, why can't I seem to find these online?  Where am I missing something?  I thought about uploading the needed files, but, since my default skins work, they should already be there.  I even installed a free skin, which works, but I can't find it's files anywhere.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks again
