Once you are logged in, the panes on the right hand side of the screen change to show
the files on the server. Click on the folders until you find where you would like to upload
your files. In my case, I'm going to go to the /new-jonwestfall.com directory (where the

double-clicking on new-jonwestfall.com in the right-hand pane, and right-clicking on
the white space next to the files. In the menu that appears (Figure 13-15), I choose
“Create Directory,” and in the next window (Figure 13-16), I give it a name.
