   Hi,

   I have followed the instructions found here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Themes but when I login to my wp-admin account and go to the theme I get the message: "The following themes are installed but incomplete. Themes must have a stylesheet and a template."
   It says the Template is missing.

   How do I fix this problem?

   You need to make sure that all the files of the theme were uploaded, as well as make sure that the theme's folder was also uploaded. Should have this folder structure.

   wp-content
       themes
            default
            your-new-theme
                 style.css and other .php files

   Ok....there is style.css and other .php files there in the structure that you said.
   Is there something else I am missing?

   I uploaded a zipped file & then pressed extract on the file.

   What is the name of the theme your trying to upload as well as a link to download the theme.

   Probably jennanash extract the files of the themes not inside a folder. If you upload a zipped file and press extract on the folder, be sure you make a folder to hold the theme files. Example the zipped file name is: BlueSea.zip then you will have to extract the files in a folder called BlueSea or any names you like. Then you will see your theme :)
