I just downloaded an NPC mod, and my screen's black. I read how to install and did EVERYTHING EXACTLY and I even deleted the META-inf folder. My screen's black and I just deleted all the files because I thought the mod had a problem with it. So I deleted all the files and folders, and my screen's still black. Please help!

Delete the bin, then run minecraft. That will reset it.
Don't worry about the Bin folder, if you lose that you can log back into Minecraft, update it, and you'll have a fresh install again.
If you can't track where your mod installation went awry before, download your mods again too, then try reinstalling from fresh copies.
The Saves folders is where your map files live and if you care about a world, that is what you need to back up. Whenever I suggest people back up the whole .minecraft folder, it is so they don't need to download bin/minecraft.jar (of if they did manage to edit it successfully but some other issue is rearing its head, requiring a partial reinstall etc.) but it is easily recovered should you need to.
If you tossed your Saves folder too and actually deleted it from the trash... congrats on being a computer n00b. You wouldn't happen to be on a Mac with a running Time Machine backup or have some sort of auto-backup software for PC by any chance?
