Actually, I'd suggest one more change. Where the page says "Upload existing 
application", I'd say simply "Upload application" or "Upload & install 
application". 

The problem with "existing application" is that it's too easy to confuse with 
"installed application". The text for my checkbox also says "existing" when it 
means "installed", so maybe that should be changed as well.

I'll leave that to you.
