  Am currently using the ‘2010’ theme. Am interested in migrating to ‘2011’, partly because the text in the menu bar under the banner is much easier to see. Is there any issues involved in doing this – do I lose anything in the process?

  Please read this Twenty Eleven article first.

  Changing themes is easy to do and no data is ever lost. However, a new theme may have different sidebars and footers for widgets and or different features. You can go here Dashboard > Appearance > Themes and select a new theme and activate it. After you change your theme all you need to do is go here Dashboard > Appearance > Widgets > Inactive Widgets and re-install them where you want them to appear. The widget contents and settings will be the same as they were prior to changing themes.
