I uploaded the new template that I want to use to my file manager, and unziped it into a template folder which I have created in the root folder. How do I apply the template to my oscommerce site? I need to see the new template live on my website, instead of the old one.

Please give step by step instructions, I am new at this.
Thank You!

Ask whoever you got the template from.  This is not a forum for support of 3rd party products such as templates.

Or maybe a ready made theme for your shop ??

It is quite sad that you reject people in this way. We should all help each other - also with integration to other products. That is a good way to show how flexible osCommerce in fact is. Therefore I expect you will change your attitude from now.
Thanks a lot in advance.

I agree. If someone uses a free, or even a paid for template, then support should be given by the template supplier. People on this forum should not be used by a template supplier for free support. We do not know the code and do not know what the supplier has done to the code. If support is not given with the templare then tough.
REMEMBER BACKUP, BACKUP AND BACKUP
I am not a coder, so dont bother sending PMs asking for help as you wont get any.  

OSC has a steep learning curve, but in general the program does work.  If it doesnt work, the chances are it is something you have done.

@14steve14 - you are far more eloquent than me.

@perbuch "Therefore I expect you will change your attitude from now."  
No, YOU will change your attitude when you have a few more posts and realise how much crap gets posted in this forum, and usually crap forced on us by 3rd party "developers" who know next to nothing about osCommerce and expect their clients to get help here.
