That's simple.

First, install your DMOD: unzip it in a Dink main dir subdirectory (ex: c:\program files\dink smallwood\DMOD1)
You should see in this dir a /Story subdirectory. If not, it is possible that the DMOD automatically installs itself in a pretyped subdirectory. In this case, you should cut this subdirectory in your Dink main directory ( yes it's hard to explain, but very simple in fact :) ).

Then, if you have "DinkFrontEnd.exe" in your Dink main directory, execute it, and select your DMOD title (or directory, it depends). Select "run with this DMOD" and then click "Play". The DMOD will start.
If you haven't DinkFrontEnd, download it or an other frontend, or open a DOS window, place yourself in the dink main directory, and then type "Dink -game DMOD1, replacing DMOD1 by your DMOD directory.
Have fun!
