I am having a lot of trouble with the Peggy 2.0 programs and Arduino.

First I download the Arduino software and uncompressed the file with no problem, then I downloaded the Peggy2Lib_0.30b which is when the problems start. I had a problem trying to get the Peggy2Lib_0.30b to uncompressed and I found another way to do it by deleting the Mac file that I had to download with the Peggy2Lib_0.30b then Extract the files. After that I opened the Arduino folder and put the uncompressed Peggy2 folder with the Arduino Library. Next I opened the Arduino software went to Examples and didn't see the Peggy2 folder I put in there but when i went back to the Arduino folder it was still there. With that being said, I wanted to know why, after carefully following the directions posted on this page (http://www.evilmadscientist.com/article.php/programpeggy2) I still wasn't able to find the folder in that location in the Arduino Examples Library?

Even after the problems I had with file placement, I found another way to put the Peggy2 folder in the Arduino program by going to the main Arduino file (in My Documents) and placing the Peggy2 folder in it. Then opened the Arduino program again and clicked on (File), (Open), and clicked on the Peggy2 folder and all the Peggy 2.0 programs where inside and I clicked on the Gray_Sketch_Peggy2_0_ then the compile button in the Audrino program and it compiled with no problem. I was extremely relieved to see that my alternate method worked until I tried the PeggyWriter_Hello and it tried to compile in the Arduino program and got an error message (I couldn't copy and paste it here but it was sayin the file wasnt in the directory along with a lot of other stuff and had this {Peggy2 frame1; // Make a frame buffer object, called frame1} highlighted. I tried many of the other Peggy2 programs and got the same or nearly the same error message for them all. the only three that would work were:
1. Gray_Sketch_Peggy2_0_
2. Game_of_Life_Peggy_2
3. sketch_nov08a
Even after scouring the web trying to find out if i could fix it I couldn't find anything so can someone PLEASE help me?!?!?!?

I have already directly replied to you, indicating what the problem is, and how you can fix it. (And YES, I CAN HELP YOU, if you'll just pay a little bit of attention.)
