Ok...
I have completely coded my own module. It is called pnComic, and allows for the uploading, editing, displaying and deleting of a webcomic...
In this module I have ALL of the code pretty much finished. I have even gone in and started cleaning up and commenting out the code even better.
Well, in the middle of all this, I decided I would start getting my first.php block designed. I have dubbed it dailyblock for displaying the most recent comic uploaded. Now then, when I go into ADMINISTRATION -> BLOCKS -> ADD NEW BLOCK I see it added into the list...
It shows up as
pnComic/
But that is it... When I create it, I set it as a CENTER block... and when I visit HOME I get:
Unknown blocktype: dailyblock!
This block doesn't seem to exist. Please check corresponding blocks directory.
Is there a certain way that you set up a Modules blocks? Some esoteric incantation I am missing, or did my Module Designers Guide have the foreward by Cthulhu ripped out?
Help me Mr. Popeil... I'm in trouble... Need your assistance on the double...

Erm...I think maybe the filename and the block name need to be the same? Or are they already? -

I found the answer...
Apparently, if your block has functions with names like:
function modulename_thisblock_init()
Then you must name your block file: this.php
You WOULD think this would be listed SOMEWHERE in the documentation... But noooooooo....
Thanks tho... Everything works now...
Now I am trying to implement NEXT and PREV comics as buttons...
Peace!
