Okay, well, you need some webspace. Oreldwin can arrange that for you, I believe. =) Then you upload the .zip file containing your game to that webspace. Your .zip file, like all files on the internet, will have a unique URL (for example, http://www.byond.com/docs/guide/ is an URL). You will then have to find out what the URL of your .zip file is, and enter that in the appropriate box in your hub entry.

Well Ore...will it cost cause I have no money but I can perhaps give you gm in the game?Would that help at all? Please contact back thanx

Nope; because Oreldwin is an all-around great guy, the hosting of hub packages is free. See id:248915. And if it wasn't free, GM wouldn't be a particularly desirable payment. =)

What kind of problems are you having, in other words.
Briefly, all you basically need to do is upload your zip package somewhere and have it download from there when someone connects to your game. So you're still using Byond Hub to point TO the new file, but it doesn't actually download from BYOND.
If that didn't help feel free to ask again :)
