Let me clarify by saying Andrea's Red Theme.  I'd appreciate an answer.

Next question:
     How do I install this theme?  When I try to browse, the file opens and I am unable to install.  Can I do this via ftp?

I don't understand. The file opens as you only click to select it? Are there any errormessages?

No FTP necessary.  Just upload the theme through the admin panel.

Are you sure you are installing the theme itself and not the buttonset?

Can you be a little more detailed about the no=go part? What exactly does happen?

No-go means it didn't work via ftp, which is what I thought I was directed to.  When I try to install thru the admin panel, I click on the "red" folder and it immediately opens the folder, revealing it's contents and I am unable to install the theme.  Again, isn't there a way to do this via ftp?

That looks like a browser thing. Have you tried this using another browser?

There is way to do this through ftp, unpack the package, on your server create a new folder in Themes/ directory, for instance aquared and upload all files to the /Themes/aquared folder.
Next, go to your Admin -> Theme and Layout Settings -> Install a new theme -> From a directory on the server:

add aquared after /Themes and it should work.

That doesn't work either.  I have a hunch it's because I'm on a friend's computer.  First chance I get, I'll try it with my computer and will report my results.  Thanks to all for your help.
