Confused on the Themes

I have read the Doc's and went to tutorial sites.
I want to have the 4thefort theme as my page.
When i go to template in the admin menu and upload it from this computer as the .tar.gz file that it specifies. Then i generate it.

When i go back to preferences-> General Settings and in the default theme, its not there. It's not a selectable theme either.

Its under the default template set but when i choose it and apply, the page hasnt change to the theme.

I'm just confused and i dont understand. Could somebody clarify this please?

Thanks, ps2cho

1. You need to take the theme out of the compressed file, create a normal, readbale directory, then upload that to your themes directory.

2. Once you've done those things go to systems admin>>site preferences>> general settings and add the new theme to selctable themes.

3. Next go to systems admin>> blocks and add theme your site.

Go to HomePage and pick your theme to see if you like the way it looks. If you like things, undo steps 2 & 3.

may the road rise to meet your feet!

Just one question...

Choose a template set package to upload
Must be a tar.gz/.tar file with a valid XOOPS template set structure

What is that for then?
