 * I created a modified kubrick (default) theme that I want to use, but when I upload
   it to my server, under admin panel when I go to Presentation -> Themes it says“
   WordPress Default 1.6”, how do I change the themes name and description? What
   file do I have to create/modify? I have searched all the files that came with
   the theme but don’t see anywhere to add this information.

 * The folder needs a different name and some lines in the theme have be set to 
   the right values (and you need an icon and some other stuff). I know there’s 
   a how to in the documentation/wiki. Be faster for us all if you looked it up.

 * I created an image to preview the theme in the admin panel and I created a new
   name for the folder and theme. Do you have a link to the doc/wiki? Is searched
   the docs but had no luck finding this information.

 * There’s protocol to themes. A manifest file if you will that describes it. I 
   don’t do themes so I’m the very last person to ask . Google “wordpress theme 
   header or manifest”. I’ll bet you find the clue.

 * Figured it out, the info is at the top of the style.css file
