    Hello

    You have to download the theme first...
    using ftp upload this theme in to your wordpress Theme folder that is located at [wordpress_path/wp-content/themes/]

    after that logon to your wordpress admin using your user name and password

    after login...click on presentation tab

    you will see some list of installed themes ....

    select your recently uploaded theme from the list

    Thats it.

    Dashboard | Write | Manage | Comments | Blogroll | Presentation | Plugins | Users | Options

    If you do use WP 2.5 "Presentation" is now called "Design" on your dashboard

    Write | Manage | Design | Comments

    ;)

    Zachdaman asked the question ("where is the presentation tab?") and edited his post! :D ;)

    I'm a fan of the ease/use of Wordpress, but I've recently installed Joomla 1.5 for a client and it is just as friendly as Wordpress, but seems much more powerful and easy to customize your layout and plenty of templates, which can be installed with just a few clicks (no ftp like Wordpress)

    Does a Joomla 1.5 website really loads as fast as a Wordpress 2.5 site?

    Well, not really sure...but it certainly depends on the amount of modules/components you choose to add to joomla.
