Newly added theme does not show up in choice-list

Hi,
I am using Drupal 4.6.3 on my site and wanted to install the Lincoln's Revenge theme. I downloaded and copied all the required files for this theme to my drupal_base/themes folder but in the admin/theme option the theme would not show up in the list (only the default 4 themes show up).
I then also copied the PHP Template Engine files to drupal_base/themes/engines folder (while there already was a xtemplate subfolder inside, which is still there and I wasn't sure if the 4.6 version needs this template engine).
The new theme still does not show up on Admin page so I am not able to switch to the new theme.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,

Browser cache
You may not be doing anything wrong: 4.6 doesn't come with phptemplate, so you did a good job installing it. As long as the theme is in /themes/lincolns_revenge and phptemplate in /themes/engines/phptemplate/, both folders are readable by the webserver they should show up.
But caching by browsers may result in some funny results: be sure to empty the cache or refresh the page.
Note: Lincoln's revenge doesn't come with a screenshot.
