Parsing adobe Kuler RSS feed

I have been trying to parse the below XML file (kuler rss feed). I have read the various posts on this site but am unable to piece them together. I specifically want to extract the child(or siblings) nodes of the element <kuler:themeItem>. However I am getting an exception : Namespace Manager or XsltContext needed. This query has a prefix, variable, or user-defined function. Pl help : C# 3.0 >net framework 3.5

RSS feed snippet:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> - <rss xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:kuler="http://kuler.adobe.com/kuler/API/rss/" xmlns:rss="http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss" version="2.0"> - <channel> <title>kuler recent themes</title> <link>http://kuler.adobe.com/</link> <description>most recent themes published on kuler (1 to 20 of 332518)</description> <language>en-us</language> <pubDate>Wed, 07 Apr 2010 08:41:31 PST</pubDate> <lastBuildDate>Wed, 07 Apr 2010 08:41:31 PST</lastBuildDate> <docs>http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss</docs> <generator>Kuler Services</generator> <managingEditor>[email protected]</managingEditor> <webMaster>[email protected]</webMaster> <recordCount>332518</recordCount> <startIndex>0</startIndex> <itemsPerPage>20</itemsPerPage> - <item> <title>Theme Title: Muted Graph</title> <link>http://kuler.adobe.com/index.cfm#themeID/856075</link> <guid>http://kuler.adobe.com/index.cfm#themeID/856075</guid> - <enclosure xmlns="http://www.solitude.dk/syndication/enclosures/"> <title>Muted Graph</title> - <link length="1" type="image/png"> <url>http://kuler-api.adobe.com/kuler/themeImages/theme_856075.png</url> </link> </enclosure> <description><img src="http://kuler-api.adobe.com/kuler/themeImages/theme_856075.png" /><br /> Artist: tischt<br /> ThemeID: 856075<br /> Posted: 04/07/2010<br /> Hex: F1E9B2, 3D3606, 2A3231, 4A0A07, 424431</description> - <kuler:themeItem> <kuler:themeID>856075</kuler:themeID> <kuler:themeTitle>Muted Graph</kuler:themeTitle> <kuler:themeImage>http://kuler-api.adobe.com/kuler/themeImages/theme_856075.png</kuler:themeImage> - <kuler:themeAuthor> <kuler:authorID>216099</kuler:authorID> <kuler:authorLabel>tischt</kuler:authorLabel> </kuler:themeAuthor> <kuler:themeTags /> <kuler:themeRating>0</kuler:themeRating> <kuler:themeDownloadCount>0</kuler:themeDownloadCount> <kuler:themeCreatedAt>20100407</kuler:themeCreatedAt> <kuler:themeEditedAt>20100407</kuler:themeEditedAt> - <kuler:themeSwatches> - <kuler:swatch> <kuler:swatchHexColor>F1E9B2</kuler:swatchHexColor> <kuler:swatchColorMode>rgb</kuler:swatchColorMode> <kuler:swatchChannel1>0.945098</kuler:swatchChannel1> <kuler:swatchChannel2>0.913725</kuler:swatchChannel2> <kuler:swatchChannel3>0.698039</kuler:swatchChannel3> <kuler:swatchChannel4>0.0</kuler:swatchChannel4> <kuler:swatchIndex>0</kuler:swatchIndex> </kuler:swatch>

My Code so far:

static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        const string feedUrl =
            "http://kuler-api.adobe.com/rss/get.cfm?listtype=recent&amp;key=xxxx";

        var doc = new XmlDocument();


        var request = WebRequest.Create(feedUrl) as HttpWebRequest;
        using (var response = request.GetResponse() as HttpWebResponse)
        {
            var reader = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream());
            doc.Load(reader);

        }


        XmlNodeList rsslist = doc.SelectNodes("//rss/channel/item/kuler:themeItem");

        for (int i = 0; i < rsslist.Count; i++)
        {
            XmlNode rssdetail = rsslist.Item(i).SelectSingleNode("kuler:themeTitle");
            string title = rssdetail.InnerText;
            Console.WriteLine(title);

        }


    }


}

EDIT: Solved. Had to add in namespaces and finally fugured out how to do that.
