You did not read my post....... DO NOT SEPERATE anything from theme folder. Take the whole folder and upload it to the wp-content/themes/ folder. Thats it. DO NOT upload any files from the theme folder anywhere else. They all stay in the folder. Again, the stylesheet is missing because you uploaded it else where. It along with everything else, including the php files stay in the folder.

Thats the beauty of WP themes, you upload a theme folder, choose the theme in the admin and your done. There is no uploading files here and there.

The index file you uploaded did not work, because it is just the theme part of the real index file.
