  I’m knew to all of this but it’s driving me nuts.

  I’ve purchased a Value bundle from you, understanding that I get the domain http://www.thefuturesoundoffoodandfitness.com into that – I’ve gone through the registration component of that on the WordPress site.
  However, when I go to managing the appearance there is no facility to upload a new theme, despite the instruction provided by Studio press.
  What am I doing wrong?
  I can see that I can buy the StudioPress theme from within the WordPress Appearance section but I’ve already purchased it direct from Studio Press.
  Please help. Tearing my hair out etc.

  I’m sorry, but themes can’t be uploaded to WordPress.com. That’s a feature of self-hosted blogs through WordPress.org.

  You may use any of the available themes we have under Appearance > Themes in your dashboard, and you may want to look into purchasing the Custom Design Upgrade to customize one of the themes we offer:
