Hi all, I’ve created a new theme I would like to upload. I’ve passed the test, but when i upload my file, and set the main file, it says “you need to upload a zip file” although I did.
I’m using winRAR to compress my zip files, thanks.

Are you positive that the extension of your file is ”.zip” and not something like ”.rar”?
its .zip
also, heres a pic proving so: http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/3889/notebooko.png
Could it be that I’m entering my copyright info wrong?

if you look at the preview box under it it states – zip file containing png or jpeg images – you are attempting to upload a single png file – you should read the upload notes again where it states that you should have in a zipped file several images named like this 1_Home.jpg, 2_Contact.jpg etc
This is so that when someone looks at your theme and they click screenshots they can see a jpeg image of each page.
The first image ( ie the 1_whatever.jpg) will be the one used for the preview image or the large thumbnail when hovering over the small thumb.
Hope that makes sense and eases your frustration.
