Have you asked in the mod authors thread. That would be the best place to get help.

depends on the mod wich one you're using if its an old one like mine then the folder /Downloads needs to be created in your root of smf if thats not created yet.
also chmod that folder with permission 755 then you can upload files to the /Downloads folder or create folders within that for categories see the mod thread
