How do i upload this theme to my wordpress? Do I have to afto be a premium member? I could not find a install button or upload button anywhere, been searching for hours.
Do you have a self-host WordPress site or a blog on wordpress.com? If it’s wordpress.com, you can’t upload your theme even you are a premium member.

When I add more than one featured image the slider aligns itself to the right. But if there is only one image (so it doesnt have to change) it is centered correctly?
Yes, it’s correctly.
