Open the KDE Control Center (kcontrol on command line)
Click on Appearance & Themes
Select Theme Manager
Click Install New Theme
Browse to the downloaded theme package
Select it and click OK
To use your new theme select the newly added theme from the list and click Apply
I'm pretty sure it will work with that extension, too.oz

Some themes have to be compiled from source.
You'll need to have qt and kdelibs development packages installed.Code:$./configure --prefix=`kde-config --prefix` $make #make install
