===== What is a GetSimple Theme? =====
Themes are bundles of files which define the look and feel and functionalities of a website by providing the html, css and scripts for your site. These bundles normally contain at least: 
  - one template: template.php
  - one css file for the design of your site
  - one screenshot to visualize the theme in the theme-administration of GetSimple
  - optional files: 
    * functions.php if your theme needs additional functionality
    * Javascript files for special effects
    * editor.css to define the css for the [[how_to:editor_configuration|WYSIWYG-Editor]] 
    * images etc.

===== How to Install a GetSimple Theme =====
When you install a theme there are a few things that you need to do:

  - Unzip your theme if it came in a ZIP file.
  - Copy all the files in their named folder to the ''/theme/'' folder on your server with an FTP client.
  - If you want to make edits to your theme, please ensure that all your files and/or folders are CHMOD'd to either 755 or 777 depending on what permissions are required by your host.
  - Log into your GetSimple administration panel, and select your new theme from the dropdown on the Theme page. Click the **Activate Theme** button.
