    You use an FTP program ... FireFTP is a free one and an add on for FireFox ... you upload the theme into the wp-content > themes folder ... you're done. Now activate the theme in the WordPress admin control panel.

    You have the file manager in your host.

    Filemanager.

    content / themes
    -> upload your theme in rar . unzip it there.

    Goto WP admin panel -> themes -> activate it.

    cheers!

    You don't need any FTP client to upload Wordpress themes . Just make sure that you have Wordpress version above 2.8 . In your dashboard near akismet stats , there will be a button to change theme .Just click on it and upload new Wordpress theme .

    use any ftp program then look public_html or www dir > blog dir if any > wp-content > themes > upload ur full theme folder here.

    now go to wp admin > apperance > themes > activate.
