lol.. you did not listen to what I said.. the theme folder doesn't have the index.php file because, as you said, you put in in the public_html folder with all the other php files from the theme.

Start from scratch..... find the zip for the theme. unzip it somewhere. Once unzipped you should have a folder, upload that complete folder in to the wp-content/themes/ folder on your sever. DO NOT move any of the files around, leave it as is! That is all you need to do, as i keep saying. Upload the complete, original folder and do nothing more with that folder or it's files.

After that go to your WP admin, then to Presentation, click on the theme you uploaded and it should be up on your blog. From the sound of the theme, there should be some options in the presentation section for that theme.
