    Hey there… me again.
    I was installing a new theme (Jim´s Monkey).
    Ok, I upload it, I go to admin center and when I´m going to select the theme I find it on a list of “Broken Theme”. Next to the name of the theme there are the words: “Style Sheet Missing”.
    Ok, I erase it, I made a few changes in the default theme, delete it, upload the edited new one and what a surprise: “Stylesheet missing”.
    I mean, I can understand it from the Jim´s Monkey but never from the default KubrickBG theme unzipped from the wordpress 2.0.2
    What´s the problem ? What can I do ?
    Thank you again !
    Raymon

    you didn’t mention if the .css file was there/loaded… that’s your style sheet and if the file doesnt have one, that would be your problem.

    Make sure you don’t have too many levels of directories. The theme’s style sheet should be in the theme-name directory immediately under themes.

    /wp-content/themes/theme-name
    — stylesheet.css

    Oftentimes folks unzip ’em and get an extra directory out of the dea.
