Follow the directions in the Adding New Themes in the Codex article, Using_Themes.
Please consider reviewing some of the articles list in Getting_Started_with_WordPress to get acquainted with other WordPress functionality.

I found a theme I liked. It clicked on test to make it full screen. The only way I can download it is to quit out of themes, then search the name of the theme, then download. Is there an easier way?

If I click Test run for a theme at the WordPress Theme Viewer, it opens the theme in a new browser tab, but leaves the original tab (where I clicked Test Run) sitting there ready to click on the Download link.

I've read the directions, as much as I'm able to understand jargon that is written for people who already know what to do. I think if I just had some help uploading the theme folder to the directory, I'd be OK.
BlueHost lets me select the theme folder, found here:
home/public/wp-content/themes
Inane question #1: BlueHost has two public folders. One is ftp public, the other is html public. I went with html public. Is that correct?
