For further reference, when installing a theme, it is very easily to accidentally override the files you've uploaded if you're not careful.

Once you have the files in place, go to Admin CP and down to Themes and install the theme there by entering the name of theme and and the name of the folder (usually the same thing). To install an existing theme from uploaded files, however, you must leave the header, body and style part all blank. Instead, in at least in Mysidia v1.3.4, you must click on the checkbox beside 'The style has been uploaded to the site, and is pending for installation' at the very bottom of the theme creation form.

Not checking that box will wipe the files you uploaded if you manually put them in place instead of entering the information in.
