The folder we are interested at the moment is the www, the document root for your website. Now you have to copy all the necessary folders supplied by the designer into the www directory and replace the existing ones and add the new ones if necessary. For example the following folders and files were supplied for the new Daemon website.

Now that we have all the images and styles in place it is time to check and see if the style and images are rendering correctly. Copy one of the .html pages over to the root directory (www) and in the URL go to that specific page. In my case I used the homepage.html. For example type into the URL address bar. http://daemonmx.localhost/homepage.html. Note: I set this website up locally on my machine and then commit the changes via cvs. Depending on your working environment this will be different.
If the page doesn't look as it should and the images are not being displayed then you have either copied the directories to the wrong place or the permissions on the directories haven't been set.
