OK, but I created the README on the website 
(https://github.com/ad1054/Postcards), not with a terminal command.  When I 
then went through the instructions and tried to create the Hello-World README 
from the terminal, that's when I got the errors.  When I click the "clone in 
desktop" button on the github.com site, it takes me to the 
http://mac.github.com/ site where my only option is to download Git for Mac -- 
which I already downloaded.

This is the result of those commands in my terminal:

ChrisGAIAG:~ chris$ git remote rm origin
fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
ChrisGAIAG:~ chris$ git remote add origin https://github.com/ad1054/Postcards
fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

So do I need to cd to some place first?

The GitHub for Mac is a complete mystery right now.  There is a long list of my 
java classes and resources, followed at the end with a link to my NetBeans 
project folder, so I see there is a link to my computer.  I guess I am in fact 
close.  I just need to figure out how to commit and push.  

And of course, resolve the strange errors in my project that can't recognize 
the Swing components of my jFrames when I removed the APC_ class from my pom 
dependencies.  Now when I attempt to run it on my computer, I get this error:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: 
org/jdesktop/layout/GroupLayout$Group
        at A_Postcard.run(A_Postcard.java:25)
        at A_Postcard.main(A_Postcard.java:35)
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: 
org.jdesktop.layout.GroupLayout$Group

 Also, when I was able to run my project, I get an error that it could not find 
the class "Versatile Wand" which is in my project's target>classes.
