Have you tried uploading it through WordPress. It will need to be a compressed file.

Hello,
My site is joelgoodmn.us
I used the FTP because that was recommended. (I do FTP’s all day long for my sites – filezilla)
I clicked the download button on wordpress and it landed o my personal machine in two seconds.
When you suggest “through” wordpress and compressing the file – exactly what procedures are you referring to?
Sorry for the confusion.
I am wondering – my wordpress came with the 2010 theme already installed.
I was hesitant to remove it until I had another theme present.
Do I need to remove the existing theme prior to the upload?
Also, my current theme is installed in the root directory directly to “wp-contents/themes”. It does not have an intervening folder called “public_html”
“….if WordPress is installed in your web-root folder you would navigate to “public_html/wp-content/themes”.
Respectfully,
Dorian

Hello,
Here is a follow up using the FTP through my wordpress site.
This is the error message I get when I tried to do it through wordpress.
“GreenPoint Milanda 1.4
Downloading install package from http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/download/greenpoint-milanda.1.4.zip…
Unpacking the package…
Could not create directory. /joelgoodman.us/wp-content/upgrade”
Hope this clarifies the problem.
