Yeah I actually checked out the video earlier and didn't think it would work because I don't have a mac and my computer wouldn't let me upload the wpaid folder alone. I gave the zipping of the "wpaid" file a go and then uploaded it - it seems to have unpacked it right and is appearing, complete with thumbnail, in my themes (as it was before), indeed it's not saying anything about broken themes etc, it's saying it was uploaded successfully - however if you go to the site, or look at it in "preview" - it's just not working correctly. I'll leave it installed so you can have a look: http://www.amepouh.org - I could be missing something, it's not supposed to look like that is it? Thanks for your help :)

... update... ok so I've now deleted the theme and tried to re-upload just the wpaid folder - but my computer will not allow this, if I select the folder to upload it just opens it and wants me to pick a specific file... I'm sorry if you've already dealt with this problem a thousand times! :)

Hi, I am warning you upfront that I am a complete moron with no knowledge or understanding whatsoever of how the magical interwebs work. Bet you love hearing that. In spite of this I'm trying to install the wordpress aid theme (which is awesome by the way) and in following your instructions which came with the download, having gone into the install themes>upload section I actually don't seem to have any other option but to upload the .zip file (which I kinda had already done anyway, before I read the instructions - I since unzipped the file and tried to upload the "wpaid" folder but to no avail)... any thoughts? Indeed the theme does seem to be in the theme folder on wordpress (as in, there's nothing about it being "broken" and it appears as the "current theme" and looks pretty, however if I go to my site's url: http://www.amepouh.org, the prettyness does not appear - or is that something I'm supposed to do myself afters? ... Or should I maybe just go and play in the sandpit and hire someone to fix it for me... :) Thank you!
