Cannot sync Google account after rooting

[braaaains]

I bought a nexus today. I activated everything fine when I first boot up the phone. My gmail account synced perfect, contacts flowed in, email worked, etc. I rooted successfully using Wug's one click program. I made a backup, then installed AOKP.

I'm now running AOKP but cannot get my gmail account synced. Every time I go to Settings > Accounts & Sync, there isn't any sort of Google option. My main issue is that I don't have a Marketplace right now, or any of the Google apps.

Is there a fix for this, or do I restore the factory settings and try again? I'm pretty new at this stuff.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Sounds like you did not flash google apps (gapps).

Here's a direct link to download the gapps
Goo.im Downloads - Downloading gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip

Once you download it, just flash it and you should be set.
