You did nothing wrong, blue_skies. You tried to help yourself... and when you got stuck, you searched around for some answers, and when you didn't find specifics... you posted your question where it seemed appropriate. That's all anyone could ask for (or so I surmise, since I'm not a mod either).
Just don't be surprised (or angry) if, in the future, a question
does end up getting moved. If it does... it's not because you're being punished. It's because the people who can best answer your question might hang out somewhere else.
