file under 'D' for dumbass

So I finally realized what was going on with the Stylecatcher plugin for my recent MT 3.2 upgrade.
I have spent hours frustratedly swearing, trying to figure out what the hell was causing Stylecatcher to line up all of my site content into one column whenever I applied a new style. I finally gave up and settled on a very boring, plain as hell format with the intention to someday manually customize everything to my own tastes.
But earlier today, I was screwing around in my MT admin panel and finally realized that in order to use the Stylecatcher plugin, a base css file has to be installed into a particular directory, referrenced by the output file generated by the plugin, a fact that should have been obvious even to a n00b like me.
Reminds me of all the times that I've told people, in providing tech support, that before they go any further, to first make sure the computer is plugged in.
Anyway, bottom line is now that I've got it working properly, I get to change my site whenever the mood takes me, AND I don't have to screw around manually rewriting my stylesheeet everytime.
