Each time I download the zipped file and try to upload it to wordpress it gives me this error:

The uploaded file could not be moved to /mnt/stor1-wc1-dfw1/385935/546293/www.dconlineauction.com/web/content/wp-content/uploads/2011/11.

Is this something that I need to fix on the back end of my wordpress or am I uploading it incorrectly?

I get this error too, on both Kriesi themes I've purchased. Can someone respond to this please? Have searched your site and cant find any installation rules to address this issue

Hey,
use a ftp software (or cpanel) to change the upload folder permission(s). Navigate to httpdocs/wp-content/uploads and set the folder permission (including the sub folders) to 777. Alternatively I'd suggest to unzip the package and to upload the theme folder by using a ftp software like filezilla to the wp-content/themes folder.

Please unzip the package you got from themeforest.net ONE time. You should get a folder which contains PSDs, Docs and another zip file (which is called cubit.zip. This zip file is the right file. Go to your wordpress admin panel and navigate to Appearance > Themes. Then select the cubit.zip file, upload & install it. You can also unpack this zip file and upload the resulting folder via ftp to wp-content/themes.

Also have a look at this tutorial video @themeforest.net: http://wiki.envato.com/buying/support-buying/solving-broken-theme-issues/

No Cubit.zip file. Big problem for average user. Must do surgery on zip file or create zip from expanded files minus PSDs. Not what I expected from a top designer.

Not as bad as I said. Cubit files are separate from PSDs but you still have to create your own Zip unless you want to get jiggy with FTP. Why would you want to do that?

Thanks for the insight, I'll notify Kriesi about this. The theme was last edited in 2009, a lot has changed ever since.

Why did I choose a forum instead of the themeforest way of support?

Themeforest support threads are not searchable. Since most questions are asked over and over again a searchable forum will make it possible that you dont even need to wait for my response, because its already there.
