yeah... okay.... I thought I knew what I was doing and I was wrong.
I went though iTunes and created 'playlists' of the 'CDs' I wanted to create. So now I have playlists in iTunes, but I have NO idea how to make them
folders that I can zip and upload.
Any help or did I fuck up doing it this way?

I don't know Itunes so I am of no help.

Not sure if you can do it from itunes to be honest but I have no idea.

I converted the itunes files to mp3's, then used winrar to zip them.

Honus, that's the same problem I was having. BD posted up some explicit directions that worked great for me, here they are....
" first, create a new folder on your desktop called 'thorp mix' (or whatever).
- then in itunes, find a song that you would like to include in your mix, control click on it and select 'reveal in finder'.
- a finder window should open with that track highlighted.
- using the menu at the top of your screen, select, 'edit->copy'.
- then open your thorp mix folder and paste the song in.
- once you have all the songs in, just rename then by adding a number to the beginning of the file name. "bad vibes - hate your everything" becomes
"01 - bad vibes - hate your everything".
once you've got all the files copied to your folder and renamed so they're in the right order...
- control-click on the folder and select 'make archive of xxx' (10.4) or 'compress xxx' (10.5)
- this will create a single compressed zip file of the folder
- upload the zip to a site like mediafire.com, yousendit.com, megaupload.com, etc.
- once uploaded, the site will provide you with a URL from which to download the file.
- post that shit up here!"
Although, now that I think about it, I dunno if you're using a mac or a pc and those are for a mac. I can't imagine it would be too much different on
a pc, but the terminology won't match up....

I hit control + mouse click on the desktop, create a folder, drag itunes songs into it, when you got what you want in it, control click the folder,
then hit the compress folder option. I fucked it up sooo many times, but it eventually worked.
