I've downloaded and unzipped a new landscape, but I can't seem to open the topic re 'installation instructions' for
new landscapes. What is the procedure for installing a new landscape?
thanks for any help with this....feel kind of dumb and frustrated. :?

Maybe the FAQ will help a little bit?
Is Point 4 what you are looking for?

Don't be frustrated! New program, new questions! YoWindow really is not complicated - just take a little of your time to explore its options & possibilities and you will have much fun with it!

When I follow the FAQ, all I get is blue sky--no image. Can you help?

The most likely reason for this is that the width and/or height of your landscape picture exceeds the limits (flash-based, not program-based).

Pavel has posted about this here.

If resizing the picture does not help:

Do you use YoWindow locally or on a webserver?
If the latter is the case, you have to have a file called "crossdomain.xml" in the root-directory of your webserver/your homepage. The FAQ on the main-page or a search here in the forum will give answers.

If you don't succeed, please post what exactly you tried so far and upload your ywl-file and your picture here.
