How do I work this ftp? @.@

Okay, so I'm a super-ultra-mega n00b here when it comes to a-m-v.org. I don't understand this FTP crap. The term 'ftp' itself scares me, even though it shouldn't. Now, I tried reading about it in the 'what the heck is FTP?' thing. It said I needed to do 3 things. I fallowed the first step and downloaded filezilla. Now what? How do I find an ftp site? x___x

I'm very obnoxious when it comes to learning how to do these kinds of things by myself, but can someone please bare with me and help me out? ;~; I need step by step instructions.

Sadly, no. I don't get the same things that come up there. Like, if I click 'upload video', it goes straight to 'confirm video' instead. It says the fallowing;

Pancake could not find your file. This is generally the result of one of:

1) You have not uploaded your video yet. Please use an FTP client, along with your FTP login information, to upload this video.

2) Your video is larger than the upload quota (typically, 100MB).

It doesn't let me upload. When I click 'upload video', it takes to 'confirm video' instead, but I can't upload if the 'confirm video' thing keeps getting in my way! I hadn't uploaded anything! >_<

So I assumed it had to do with the ftp. @___@

then you must have tried to already tried uploading it... at some time before, or uploading some file...

cancel the confirmation then.

Okay, new issue! When I type in the ftp address, it takes me to this page. it says in bold 'Seeing this instead of the website you expected?' and undernieth it says the fallowing;

This page is here because the site administrator has changed the configuration of this web server. Please contact the person responsible for maintaining this server with questions. The Apache Software Foundation, which wrote the web server software this site administrator is using, has nothing to do with maintaining this site and cannot help resolve configuration issues.

So.. what do I do? Contact the a-m-v.org people? ._.

You use an FTP client, rather than putting the URL into your browser.
