You might wanna fix the link in the “..First test run the theme, ..”, which is pointed to your The Studio theme, not the Colourise

@ thebuppie
Do you have FTP access to your site?
If so, unzip the theme file and add it to /wp-content/themes/
If not, then you need to use WebFTP or similar file managers via host admin panel and upload the files and folders one at a time.

@ mr smeeg
The styles are in style.php, you can modify the styles but do not overwrite the file itself.
