  Hello. I’m a new blogger and I’d like to know what free themes should I use to make my blog look professional looking.
  Also,how I can add HTML widgets to my website side bar.
  Like the whos.amung.us widget won’t show.
  My blog address is http://everythingweekly.wordpress.com/

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Just look at the themes in your dashboard until you find one you like – what is right is in the eye of the blog owner – your current theme looks fine to me

  You can use the text widget but some types of code get stripped out such as Java Script – so any tracking Widgets need to use the Plain HTML version – many tracking sites offer the Plain HTML version – in some cases you need to ask for the plain version – sorry don’t know about who’s amung us

  I know,thanks,but from your point of view,what’s your liking. Why do strip out codes like Java?I see some WordPress sites with Java script widgets,seriously. Okay,I guess I’ll have to ask.
  Thanks a lot!

  Java is stripped out for security and reliability reasons

  This is a multiuser blogging platform and JavaScript is a high security risk, given the fact our blogs are not free standing. One incident of bad script could bring down many blogs. http://en.support.wordpress.com/code/#javascript
