okay I'm getting really fed up with this **** I try to install a god dang theme and I put all the gif files in the right damn folders but every single fricken time I go to themes&templates the damn theme is not there, what is it I'm doing wrong?


p.s. sorry for the profound language I'm just so utterly, entirely, fed up with these thing's not working.>:[ and yes I'm really impatient with this stuff because I'm really impatient in real life.>:[
1. If there are images that come with the theme, upload them to the images folder.
2. You have an option on what to do with the .xml file:
1. Upload it to your server (anywhere within the MyBB folder will do, as long as you know where it is); or,
2. Upload it later to the server when it is time to import the theme via the Theme Manager (if the upload is too big for your server, use the first method above)
3. Use the import utility of the Themes manager. If you decided to go with the latter option above, select the .xml file for upload. If you uploaded the .xml file to the server, type in the path to the .xml file relative to the MyBB root folder.
4. If the import is successful, congratulations!
