There should be a directory GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/ in your home dir. Just move the downloaded Theme.tar.gz into that directory and untar the file, for example typing tar xvzf Theme.tar.gz

There's a lot of useful info in the Window Maker FAQ (http://www.dpo.uab.edu/~grapeape/wmfaq.html)

If you have executed wmaker.inst as a user before using Window Maker for the first time, there should be automatically created that GNUstep/ into that user's home directory. So do you mean there's no such thing in your home directory?

<edit> Looks like a helpful app, Sensei! Gee... I hadn't even heard of it... </edit>
