hey

Admin CP > Themes > Import

check ignore version compatibilty.

make sure later to set it as default
Admin CP > Themes > Modify / Delete 

from the drop-down meny , select set as default

ok, i have tried this and i just get a box saying "title" and another saying "template" and a menu "templalte set" and 2 radio buttons with options "yes" or "no"
how do i brouse for the theme?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

ok, i have found out how to add the theme, but when i cearched for the file on my PC {through admin CP} it said upload failed - maybe because i clicked the wring file? :$
would it be easier for me to add you on MSN?
thanks for your help so far
