 * hi
 * Am very new to WordPress, and am trying to upload a theme. When i try to upload
   the zip file i get a message telling me there is no stylesheet attached. There
   are 3 stylesheets (CSS) in the zip file and i know because i’ve unzipped myself.
 * i have unlocked ftp in my control panel from my webhost, but this has made no
   difference.
 * Any ideas, without too much jargon will be much appreciated.
 * Thanks in advance
 * Ox

 * Have you tried creating a folder in the wp-content/themes/ directory and then
   uploading the contents of the zip file (not the zip file itself) into the newly
   created folder with FTP?
