I figured out how to Install Dnn on godaddy. I got as far as installing the skin, but none were included in the install package. The program wouldn't let me move forward without a skn. I bought one from the marketplce and put the zip file in the install/skin directory, as the install guide requested. But now I'm getting this error. Please help! Server Error in '/dotnetnuke' Application. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

There are a couple of free skins that come with the DNN install zip.  I suggest you delete your database and start again.  Note that installing on GoDaddy is not easy the first time, use google to search for more info about how to install DNN on godaddy.
