First of all, the hot key to take an image of your screen is actually
command+shift+3, not 4. the next thing is this. When you unziped the Solona

I don't really know what solona is but if you're in the command line for the

Hi Allison. So I assume you unzipped the file and moved the resulting solona
folder to your documents folder?
If so, open up the terminal and type the following line.
cd Documents/solona
That will put you in the solona folder, and you should be able to follow the
rest of the instructions
