How to Install Themes for Your Wordpress Blog

How to Install Themes for Your Wordpress Blog
1. This article is going to assume you have a self-hosted WordPress blog. You cannot upload themes to a free WordPress.com hosted blog.
2. First you should find several themes that you like. Download them and unzip them. You can fnd WordPress blog themes in several places, as well as searching 'free WordPress Themes'.

Here are a few sites to start with:
The Official Wordpress Theme Viewer
XHTML Valid
WP Templates (my personal favorite)

3. Once your themes are downloaded and unzipped open your FTP Client and connect to your site. You will need to open the directory usually titled 'www'. Then you need to find where you have installed your WordPress Blog. Once you have located and opened that folder, you need to open the folder titled 'wp-content'. Then you must open the folder labeled 'themes'. Now you can upload your unzipped theme folders into the WordPress theme folder.
4. Once that is finished, open your web browser and log into your WordPress account. Under the Design tab you should see screenshots of all your uploaded WordPress Themes. Just click on the one that you like the most and WordPress will apply that theme to your blog.
5. That's about it. It's really quite simple. Of course you will want to click on the Design/Widgets tabs and add widgets to your theme to make your blog more interactive. Have fun with it!!!
