You need to use the search feature mate, but just for you, here are both the red and blue themes....

Just merge the two folders with the ones on your memory card..😉

Right - what you need to do is connect your phone to your pc in data transfer mode, NOT pc suite mode.

Unrar the file you downloaded from me to the desktop so that you have the two folders, 'private and resource'.

Now, make sure that you have your memory card contents on screen - go to computer and click Nokia 5800 Xpress Music (or similar - can't remember exactly) and you should see the contents of your memory card on screen

Now, simply drag the 2 folders from the download into the memory card folder - a prompt should appear saying something like 'do you want to merge the folders?'.
Just click yes and let it do the business.

Wait until all activity is finished then disconnect your phone from the PC. You should now see the new themes in the theme directory, though you may have to power off and power on again.

You'll have to excuse me if I am a bit vague on the exact details as I'm doing this from memory cos my phone is still at the menders having the screen replaced.

PM me if you need any more help,ok?

For anyone who is having problems transferring the files, here is a transcript of a PM session with Ashey - just FYI

Ashey:- HAHA sorry about this mate

I have connected by mass storage device and the options there are nokia phone browser and my memory card.

There is nothing in nokia phone browser so cant see anything.

Should I drop in to the phone browser or the memory card?

Mafty:- Into the memory card mate - NEVER install themes to the phone - there are some dodgy ones out there that will brick your phone - if they are on the mem card you can rescue the phone by simply taking the card out.

Whoop whoop thanks for that mate its worked

Thanks for the patience
You're welcome - glad we got there in the end!!
Don't forget the 'add reputation' button on the main forum - glad to be of service!

Already one step in front of you and did it :icon14:

It really is that simple to be honest.

The place I was going wrong originally was by connecting in PC Suite and then when I changed I was a bit unsure on the bit that mafty had said about Nokia 5800 xpressmusic thing.

But cleared up and it all works fine now and it is both the red and blue one up for download.

Yeah, like I said I was working from memory because my phone is away having a new LCD fitted, but we got there in the end - all good!!!
