 * I’ve uploaded the zip files of three different new WP themes, and am getting 
   the same error message with each one:
 * Stylesheet is missing. Plus: variations on this message:
 * Warning: fopen(/home/kathyshaidle/kathyshaidle.net/wp-content/themes/main_files/
   style.css) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory
   in /home/kathyshaidle/kathyshaidle.net/wp-includes/functions.php on line 4165
 * Warning: fread(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/kathyshaidle/
   kathyshaidle.net/wp-includes/functions.php on line 4168
 * Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/
   kathyshaidle/kathyshaidle.net/wp-includes/functions.php on line 4171
 * At first I assumed there was something wrong with the zip files but how can three
   different designers have produced 3 corrupted themes?
 * Please tell me what else you need to know to help out. Thanks in advance!!

 * Try un-zipping the themes first, then uploading just the directory containing
   the themes files, and see if the symptom changes. Make sure what you upload looks
   like this:
 * /theme_name/theme_files
 * -not this!
 * /theme_name/theme_name/theme_files
 * Avoid nested folders.
