   Everyone talks of a /wp-content/themes directory. I do not see this directory when I am managing my domain. Where is this directory located?

   Within your WordPress directory.

   If you have the default installation it will be in the root of your WP installation.

   ~installation_folder~/wp-content/themes

   I guess I am not stating my ? correctly. I took the default install and I don't see the wordpress folder. Is it nested in the database? I have browsed my entire domain and none of the mentioned folders exist. Are they hidden for some reason with the default install?

   no folders are hidden -you are not looking in the correct place
   wordpress files and folders do not go into the database
   ask your host for help - it's what you pay them for

   This puzzled me for a while... It likely varies depending on your host.
   I use host monster and do the following:

   File Manager - select "web root" and press go...
   That opens a new window - here I select the folder with my domain name (without the .com / because both folders exist)
   Then you get
   wp-contents

   Then my folder for themes is listed there.
