Hey all - OpenCart newb here
I have installed the software (FINALLY) after overcoming issues with GoDaddy's hosting >:(
Overcame the MagicQuotes ON issue with adding a php5.ini file....I deleted the folder named "Install" as instructed on the last screen of installation....
Now I have successfully installed it, logged into admin and checked out the default template of the site only to realize the store is in the "Upload" folder? What am I missing? I tried to rename the folder to store....makes more sense to have store rather than upload. Any thoughts, comments, suggestions from you OpenCart masters? Any help would be very appreciated!!

I take it you uploaded the whole upload folder rather than what was in the folder.
I would suggest delete the whole thing, create a folder called store or shop or whatever, then reupload the *contents* of the upload folder and reinstall. or you'll have a store called upload...

I guess I read it a little tooo literally when the directions said to upload the "upload" FOLDER and not the contents of said folder.....
Well I guess it is back to the drawing table for me yet again! Thanks for the reply!
