Hello

If you choose to install a complete theme you downloaded from the Gallery section, you just read these instructions.

1- Once you downloaded the .zip file to your computer, you must unzip it.

Notice : If you have Windows XP, you have a decompression utility integrated in Windows. You just have to right-click on the .zip file and then you go to "Extract all", and then you just follow the instruction of the decompression assistant.
If you don't have Windows XP, you need a decompression softwares. The most known are Winzip and Winrar, but you can also use a freeware (you can look for freeware alternative HERE.

2- Once your .zip decompressed, you will have different icons and buttons you have to host yourself and to install one by one in your Admin Panel, in the "Logos & Pictures" section. You have the "panadmin.html" file to help you out.

3- Then, in the Admin Panel > Colors > you fill up the different fields with the color codes given in the "install.html" file.

4- In some skins, there is a .JS or a .CSS you have to install. For this, you have to host this file on a FTP account .
