Hello, today I'm going to show you how to install a theme in the simplest form I can.
First find a theme suitable for MyBB 1.8, for this tutorial I will be using 'Revolution Gaming' by @iAndrew.
1) Download the theme, open the file & extract to a place you know; I'm going to extract it to 'Desktop'

2) Once that is done, right click the images file which should be called 'revolution in this case.

You should then see a 'zip' FOLDER:
