How to add my own jekyll theme to GitHub pages?

I've downloaded a jekyll theme from: http://jekyllthemes.org/

But it seems git hub doesn't have the theme in theme chooser.

How I can add my own theme? I've already done the website locally, but finally github doesn't support the theme, which is upsetting.

Instead of using the theme gem, copy all the files directly to your Jekyll instance, respecting theme directories, then remove any reference to the theme in _config.yml.

Upload the Jekyll website including the theme files and Github pages should be able to show the right design.
