This is not an admin account. The SMF default core theme works fine. Looks like you have a paths issue with the theme you posted.

Again to repeat, your SMF default core theme works just fine.

Regarding this problem for that theme you have NO files in your both of your themes. (In FTP) It must have been installed wrong... If you want I can manually install them for you if you tell me what themes they are and where I can download it.

A reminder about admin / ftp passwords etc.

Its a Themes Paths/Urls Problem
Go to Admin > Themes and layout > Themes and Settings > Now see the themes name you installed and see if it says something like {warning! The Themes URl/paths are incorrect}, If so click on Themes name and correct them.

No I checked his FTP. For the themes that show up blank there are no files in it. So it must have extracted or installed wrong.

Can both of you shut up if you have no clue instead of guessing and confusing the user?

If you actually know what is going on, then you can speak.

I am speaking up becuase I know as a fact why it's not working. saitanay how did you install the theme? You are missing all the theme files so thats why its showing up blank and without images.

[saitanay]

solved..

[shadow82x]

Glad you got it solved, saitanay! Did you try reinstalling the theme or adding the missing files?
