Installation Advice

Hi,
It seems that I am unable to find (manual) installation instructions for this template (Storefront). I gathered from the documentation I managed to find that quickstart could be the simplest way to install it altogether otherwise it may be a bit problematic. The problem is that I have a well established website and a quickstart installation may not be an option.
Going through the documents, I found three zip files for Joomla 2.5: gk_storefront_J!25.zip, gk_storefront_quickstart_J!25.zip and gk_storefront_rest_files_J!25.zip. I had installed the first one (gk_storefront_J!25.zip), which seems to be the template. I am assuming that the second zip file (quickstart) is not needed in my case! I then unzipped gk_storefront_rest_files_J!25.zip and it seems it has four directories with only the "plugins" directory containing some meaningful file, do I need to install these plugins? The template I have installed so far look OK but a bit sterile, am I missing something here?
Any help would be much appreciated.

Its exactly as you have described.
Quickstart - entire Joomla installation pack with all settings, modules etc. I would suggest to install it somewhere temporally so you can see ho w things are setup.
You use "rest" pack if you require the plugins.
Documentation for a template describes exactly what and where to install. You will need at leas News Show Pro plugin. Sometimes Image Show is also required.

Hi Again,
You mentioned two modules: News Show Pro plugin and Image Show plugin, it seems that they are not part of rest files! Any idea where to find them?
