-drag the "365" folder on the local (right side) into the "www" folder
-you might want to delete any large, unneeded files, such as .psd files that aren't included in the site
-after your site is in the "www" folder, you can open a web browser to see it
-the url address of your site should be:
tiger.towson.edu/~yourusername/365/index.html
- it's case sensitive, so make sure you didn't capitalize any of your folder names, or file names
-and, if you named your home page something aside from index.html, then you would use that name instead
