Hi I was wondering if anyone could help me, Im new to the whole procedure and got excited when my bitcoins appeared in my account on silkroad, and i have entered the code they give you and clicked "withdraw bitcoins"
It now says my balance is 0.00 and I have no idea where the bitcoins went. Sorry if this is a stupid question but can anyone help me? Thanks in advance.

If they appeared in your account, why did you withdraw (take them out) 'em?

I dont know, i just got excited and thought that it was how you entered your bitcoins into escrow. I feel like an idiot cos I have no idea what happened to them. Any ideas?

No, you deposit the coins into SR.
You may a purchase on SR.
Coins are put into escrow.
When your product arrives you "finalize" and the funds in escrow are sent to the vendor you purchased from.
I'm not sure where you withdrew them.

The code who gave you?
If you mean the code shown on your SR Account page, then that's another address to deposit to your SR account and I'd guess the coins should be back in your account within several hours. If that's the address you used and the coins don't reappear after, say, a day you might want to message SR staff; they *may* be able to untangle things for you.
Otherwise, the coins went to whomever (if anyone) controls the address you entered.

Someone (not you) is a very lucky person.
