downloaded Glims to Safari 5.0.1, but can't see anything when I re-launch

Hi all - I am new to Mac and Safari. I read some of the posts about how to make websites appear on a full screen and followed the advice to download Glims. I did that, re-launched Safari, but I don't see anything anywhere...not sure if I should see something on the Home Page or on the Safari "menu". I haven't done all my research as I get used to this new operating system...but what am I missing here? I really want to be able to have websites appear as a full screen.
Thanks!

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.3)

HI,

From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences then select the Glims tab. You can also access
Safari Preferences by pressing Command + K on your keyboard in Safari.

Under General on the left click: Full Screen

I haven't done all my research as I get used to this new operating system.

Ok...

At the top of your Safari Menu bar you clicked: Safari then scroll down and click: Preferences ??

Ok.. we're on the right track.

If you don't see "Glims" in the Menu then it's not installed.

Go here: http://www.machangout.com/

Click where you see: Download 4.4 MB

Just follow in the instructions. After it's installed, Quit Safari from the Safari Menu Bar, don't just close a window. Then relaunch Safari.
