Trying to get polls working on my site  XML

Hi there.
I have recently installed polls 2.03 on my site but it looks really odd (check it here http://lifebydzine.com/polls/ ). I know nothing about PHP or polls or whatever. It was an option by the webservice where my site is hosted. I thought it would all be done for me automatically but obviously something is wrong.
All the php files are in a polls folder but I do not know what to do with them. I am trying to read some of the forum reponses but I am getting a headache.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I have now added some stuff and now the polls come up but how do I now add the polls to an existing webpage?

Here's the post with the instructions.

http://proxy2.de/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2067

In the above instructions, you change the path to yours.

If, while in the Admin Panel, you click on help, it will give you the code to place in your file, and I believe it will have your correct path. You just change the x to the Poll ID#.

It will also give the code to show random polls or the latest poll.

A bit of advice: Do a search before posting a question. This question has been answered many times here.

Like amber said to get the correct path it is alreay found for you
if you have a look round the admin panel.

NOTE TO OTHER USERS!
Look thru the admin panel before posting in case you find what you were looking for!!!

Don't bother doing it that way.

Edit the templates directly in the admin area.
They use normal HTML just like any other web page, just make sure to leave any non-HTML bits still in there.
