 * So, I just made a wordpress site through Host Gator.com. I’ve also downloaded
   a theme from template monster.com. The problem I’m having is with installation.
   The folder I downloaded has dozens of files in it, and I’m not sure which one
   needs to be installed. I tried named “CherryFramework.zip” but when I click the
   live view, it didn’t show any of the customization that was on the template monster
   page. How exactly do I install the new theme into my wordpress site, and when
   it is installed, will I be able to see all the css, pictures, etc. once its activated?
   Thank you for your help.
