Would this be because I have mods installed and need to reinstall the mods to this new theme or what?
Yes you would need to uninstall your mods, then install the theme, and reinstall the mods.
With that said though, the first error seems to be related to a file permission issue while creating a minified javascript file.

Thing is, it only happens when I install this particular theme on my main site. No problems or errors when I install it on my fresh SMF 2.1.2 test site!

I new I would eventually have to anyways, just wondering if that's what was causing the error or not before I go thru all that!?
I just tried installing another theme and got the same errors, so something wrong in my forum files I suppose! I'll do a fresh reinstall of forum and mods later and post back. ;)
The error appears to be from the minimize file setting.
Did you package minified files with your theme? That might be the issue.

No I have it turned off on the site I use to create themes. I checked the zip file anyways to make sure and there are no minified files in it.
you dont have the correct permissions on the minified folder, you need to make sure the server can write to that folder.

Ok...I see the problem lol! ::) I deleted the "scripts" folder because I thought it would default to the default themes "scripts" folder. I added the folder back and no errors now.
Guess I need to go back and add it back to my other themes now too!
Marking solved 8)
Here is a preview if anyone was curious... O:)
(I'm hooked on black, red and yellow) ;D
