   install the theme my wordpress server went down and I can not log in now … what
   should I do?

 * Try switching to the default theme by renaming your current theme’s folder inside
   wp-content/themes and adding “-old” to the end of the folder name using [FTP](http://codex.wordpress.org/FTP_Clients)
   or whatever file management application your host provides.
 * Then, as you are using a commercial theme, you need to seek support from the 
   theme’s vendors.
