 * This is probably a really stupid question, but I just can’t find out how to create
   a new database using phpmyadmin. I have a different version of phpmyadmin then
   in the instaltutorial and there is no “create new database” field. I’ve tried
   every possible link on there and I just can’t find it. I’ve got version 5.0.32
   I think.
    I would include a screenshot, but it’s all in Dutch, so I don’t know
   how helpful that would be.
 * I have no experience with this whatsoever, so please, keep it simple :p

 * I already found that link myself using google, but as I already said, I don’t
   have that page. I have no page where I can create a new database.

   See this is what it looks like when I log in and when I click on databases there
   is no field where I can create a new database either.
 * edit; neither can i find any of the other things i need, like the link for “Privileges”.
   Am I doing something completely wrong here?

 * Where would I find this?
    Can’t seem to find anything like it in PhpMyAdmin
 * edit; nevermind, I got a reply from my host, it’s not possible to create a new
   database.
