System Tools or Repair How to transfer ZIP'd homescreens saved on Computer to Q

OK, I've had my Q (AT&T Q9h GSM Global) for about a week and found some cool homescreens that I was able to download to my computer. I can move the ZIP over to my Q, but, where does it need to be stored so i can use it can be selected as a home screen when I "Personalize My Q"? I currently have it stored in My Documents on my Q (not in any particular folder), and the options selected on the file are "Confirm before deleting", "Hide Hiden Files", and "Hide System files". Again, should I put it in any particular folder to access & apply this, or, change any of the aforementioned settings... Just learning how to use my Q and could definately use some help!! Thanks for any info/help

P.S. Love this site!!!

Chris

I have tried to move unzipped home screen files from a directory on my 'puter to the application data/home folder on my Q. But every time I try it won't allow the files to be transferred. That circle with the diagonal line comes up.

Does anyone know why I can't transfer the files. This is the first time I've had problems transferring HS files to my Q.

You cant move them directly from winrar (or whatever else your using)

drag the files to your desktop or another folder on your comp and then drag em to your Q
