Comment on WordPress Header Images by SEO Dave.
Another free Stallion colour scheme loosely based on a WordPress theme called Coraline that’s currently one of the top downloads in the Free WordPress theme repository.
The Stallion Coraline WordPress Theme Design is a clean white colour scheme.
This new colour scheme can utilize all the built in Stallion 6.1 features, the 9 layouts for the sidebars, everything, so it’s better than the Coraline WordPress theme :-) it’s loosely based on.
In the next Stallion update I’ll incorporate the new colour scheme directly into the Stallion zip file. If you’d like to try this new Coraline colour scheme before it’s added to the next Stallion update download this zip file:
Update: built into Stallion 6.2, zip no longer needed.
Extract and find and upload the /wp-content/ folder within to the root of your site using FTP. If you have WordPress installed in a sub-directory upload the extracted /wp-content/ folder there (basically find where your /wp-content/ folder is and upload there).
The zip file only contains a handful of files (one CSS file and so doesn’t overwrite any of your current files (assuming you haven’t added a Custom 02 style already).
When Stallion is updated above 6.1 you will not need these files. When you update to Stallion 6.2 via the built in Stallion theme updater for example you’ll have to change the “Stallion >> Colour Options : Stallion Theme Colour” setting to whatever I call this colour option (probably “Stallion Coraline”).

Installing WordPress Themes
Two problems with your install.
1st Stallion ideally would be installed under the folder
/wp-content/themes/stallion-seo-theme/
You have it under

I guess you’ve used FTP and uploaded the extracted zip folder /stallion-theme-7.1.1(1)/ which includes the folder /stallion-seo-theme/, you should only upload the folder /stallion-seo-theme/
