  We have tested this theme at:
  http://blog.soton.ac.uk/engineeringuk/
  It has thumbnails on the right, as does the original theme here:
  http://demo.alienwp.com/ascetica/

  However on WordPress.com when we use this theme the thumbnail widget is not available. Please advise if it is possible to add this. Thank you very much.

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

  Hi there,

  After looking into the sites you provided, I found that the site was using the WordPress.org software for self-hosted sites. To clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities. At WordPress.com, we provide hosting, support, and tons of features for blogs. Users also have the option to purchase a variety of upgrades to customize the look and feel of their blog. On WordPress.org, users are provided access to all backend files and can upload custom themes (the theme you provided was for WordPress.org) and plugins.

  Check here to learn more about the difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org:

  However, you can still add a Gallery Widget to your site that would look very similar to what you were looking for. You can find more information about that here.

  Please let me know if you have any questions!
