That image isn't helping much. I need to see a live example somehow.

Did you try a manual install?
 
1. In your Themes folder, create a new folder and name it the exact name as the theme you want to install. Example: inferno_20
2. Upload the theme zip file to the The folder that you just created using your cPanel.
3. Unpack the theme zip file.
4. Go to Admin> Configuration> Themes and Layout.
5. Where it states "From a directory on the server" type in the exact theme name at the end of the path that is already there.

Example: /home/site/public_html/home/Themes/inferno_20

Click "Install"

yes, i've tried that several times.

When i do that it unpacks it within themes/inferno_20/
but it breaks it apart into two folders, /_MACOSX and /inferno_20

Maybe try transferring the files over unpacked? It may take more time to complete but I have done it many times.

It's not that necessary, Having only the silent wave theme installed works perfectly fine for my uses as of now, just wanted to let you guys know that i was having some type of problem.

As of now, it's pretty much fixed.

Yes, i would also suggest uploading the theme's folder instead. It almost seems like it has something to do with unpacking the zips on your server for some reason. Contacting your host about this issue might help. Can you install mods properly?
