A Plan to gain more weight? Please help.?

Okay, so i have used a "Daily Calorie Calculator" to estimate how many calories i should eat to maintain my current weight or to gain more weight. I am 6'1", i am 16 years old and i weigh 135 pounds. Yeah, i am a skinny guy, which is what i hate. So when i calculated my weight and all, it said i need 2067.88 calories to maintain my current weight (Which is what i DO NOT want). To gain 1 pound a week i would need 2567.88 calories. To be honest, i do not keep track of my calorie intake. I eat anything i feel like eating whenever i feel like it. The only reason why is because i do not know what i should be eating? if anyone knows of a website that helps you with what you should be eating and/or give you a schedule of what or when i should be eating, that would really help out a lot. Or if you yourself have any advice, please help?
