    Not every theme available for WordPress.org is available here, the ones you can select are all listed on the themes page.

    What is it you like about the Smallblog theme? I can help you find one with a similar look or features if you let me know a little bit more about why you like it.

    Hi Hallluke,

    thanks for your answer; I found “smallblog” on a list of wp.com themes… but when I went to choose it it did not show up… (I know some themes are only available to .org users but, I searched for “wu wei” which is a theme I use (and have used) on several blogs… and it too did not show up as an option.

    Is wp cutting back on the number of free themes that I can have access to?

    I like many things about “smallblog” – the typography, especially… and the layout. (one – or two – column with widget bar on the right.

    Thanks for any ideas you might have!
    :D

    Wu Wei has been retired so it’s not available to select any longer. New themes, both free and premium, are still added at a fairly frequent rate but occasionally older themes get retired for compatibility and various other reasons.

    You can filter for certain features and styles in the theme search: here are some responsive themes with a right sidebar that also have a full width template.

    Have a look at the demo site for Sela in particular. It has a similar layout, lets you include extras like a site logo, a custom background and featured images and the social menu in the footer is similar too.
