How can I activate an old WP theme?
-
I would like to upload a old WordPress theme that isn’t available on my current theme list. I’ve downloaded the files from the WordPress.org list, but I can’t find an upload button in order to activate the old theme. Is there anything I can do or do I have to choose from the current list on this site?
Thanks so much for your time. I look forward to hearing from you

Uploading themes is a feature of self-hosted WordPress.org sites:
http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/adding-new-themes/
However, you’re more than welcome to select from over 160+ themes in our Theme Showcase:

Thank you for your response.
Just to clarify, I don’t want to make a custom theme to upload. The theme I have my heart set on used to be in the Theme Showcase, but isn’t anymore. It’s the theme called Coffee Desk, and can be found at: http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/coffee-desk
Another one I’m fond of is called Multi, and is found at: http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/multi
Is it possible to use one of these themes since they are WP themes or no?
Thanks for your patience with me :) -
Howdy,
It’s really not possible to activate those themes here at WordPress.com, as they’re for self-hosted blogs.
However, you’re welcome to choose among the themes here:

If you’re a big fan of coffee, you could always find a picture of a cup of joe, and upload it as your custom header image. :-)
