Im trying to make my own theme for Concrete 5, but i dont know where to upload it, or how to install it.

I have made :
Directory Elements containing the
Header and footer.php
Directory img containing the images i will be useing.

But where should i upload.

I have placed it in concrete5/themes but im not able to find it in the theme menu, of the dashbord.

Someone please help.

Normally you put your custom themes in the /themes folder at your sites root.

You say you've put them in the /concrete/themes folder which I've never tried, though I would expect it would be OK.

Might be worth moving it to /themes and looking in the dashboard again?

Yes, plus you need to create a folder named after your theme, so C5 can see it. So if you want your theme called 'myTheme', your directory structure would look like this:
/themes/myTheme/All your theme files

Make sense?
