Is this template compatible with 1.3.9h? I just noticed it says zen cart 1.5 on the template download page, maybe that is my problem.
I also just tried your 'andover modern' theme and I got the same problem, doesn't show up in drop-down. haven't figured this one out yet, I almost think for some reason its due to some windows/unix file format problem, although I went to the trouble of manually converting all the files to unix format my third try around with this theme and andover modern.
