I can't get new theme to show up in my wp-content/themes/ directory

Dear Treehouse, I can't seem to get my theme to appear in my wp-content/themes directory. Furthermore, I have created all the styles, and necessary templates. However, I was working on an old theme of which I deleted, and wordpress is still telling me that the older theme is broken, when it is not in the directory.

Please Help!

If you have older version of a theme that works, try putting that in your themes file and work forward from there.

As for the theme you are trying to get to appear, you are referring to the interface part of WordPress, where you rae looking at all of the themes you have available for that install?
