Could you replace that link to the theme’s .zip file to a link to the theme’s demo?
So, what steps have you taken to convert it into WordPress?
This is what it looks like when uploaded…
I’ve read a couple tutorials, and since my theme had no footer, sidebar, or header I just placed the code from the index.html into the index.php.

Which index.php file is this, can you tell us the directory path to it?

Is this like in your “/wp-content/themes/yourtheme” folder or is it at the very root (“/”) folder?
Oh Sorry…
public_html/rankme/wp-content/themes/Planet Lunar – Theme

Okay cool 🙂
So, this is a theme you’re creating from scratch and not rewriting a theme that has already been built?
I downloaded this HTML Theme..
As you can see, I changed some of it and now I wanted to convert it to a W-Press Theme

Right. And when you said you placed code into index.php, you created this file? Or was it there to begin with?
I placed the code into the index.php. The original downloaded file didn’t come with index.php
Oh Yes, I created that file (index.php)

Great thanks for clarifying that.
So at the moment your page is broken because the browser cannot find the following files:

What you need to do is edit the index.php file and changes the paths to those files so that they match their new position. Their new position is in the “/wp-content/themes/Planet Lunar – Theme” folder (you might want to get rid of the spaces in the folder name to avoid potential problems).
If you download the ZIP of the theme I sent, you can view the layout of it. I can’t seem to understand why it doesn’t work.
Oh Alright. Let me try that
