  re:domain mapping
  The blog linked to your username is an empty free hosted WordPress.com blog. Please read this> WordPress.com vs WordPress.org: The Differences

  Please post the URL for the .wordpress.com blog you wanted to domain map from. Did you purchase the domain mapping upgrade? Did you purchase the domain through WordPress.com?

  The only themes we can use on free hosted WordPress.com blogs are found here > Appearance > Themes. If you purchased a premium theme directly from WordPress.com then you must post to the Premium Themes Forum for support.

  If you purchased a theme anywhere else on the internet then know that it cannot be uploaded into a free hosted WordPress.com blog. Those themes are for WordPress.org installs and run on different software than ours here at WordPress.com. There is no FTP access to free hosted WordPress.com blogs and we cannot install any themes into them.
