Wordpress Themes

[pcbres]

I downloaded the zip file that contains all of the content that I need for my new theme, how do I take that downloaded theme and apply it to my wordpress blog to use as my new theme?

A quick Google search led me to this:

You have to upload it, usually by FTP to your wordpress themes folder then login to your account and activate that theme. You can only do this if you self host a blog. If you have a blog on wordpress.com i think you can only use their themes.

Unzip the file, Upload the File to your "Styles" or "Themes" folder. Then go to admin panel and select that theme.. This will only work if you are hosting from your own server.

If you aren't hosting your server then you must select and install the themes through the admin panel.
