How can I edit my Theme?
-
where has my Theme gone? I wish to edit it and move on to writing blogs and adding widgets to my site.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

This site http://mjw81.com/ is wearing the Twenty Ten theme and the detailed theme description is here http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/twentyten/
The only themes we can use on free hosted WordPress.com blogs like your blog are the themes found here http://wordpress.com/themes/
There is no FTP access to free hosted WordPress.com blogs and we cannot:
upload any third party themes,
create child themes,
create our own themes,
edit templates,
or use stylesheets from other themes.http://en.support.wordpress.com/ftp-access/
http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/adding-new-themes/There is no upgrade you can purchase that changes that. WordPress.org offers free software that you can install on a web server. You can create themes, upload and install themes and plugins, run ads, and edit the database, etc. Learn about the differences here. http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

You can make tweaks to some aspects of your theme in the theme customizer, under Appearance > Customize:
https://mjw81.wordpress.com/wp-admin/customize.php?url=http%3A%2F%2Fmjw81.wordpress.com%2F
For example, you can change the background colour, upload a background image, and add header images.
Some tweaks, like changing colours, fonts, or adding custom CSS, will require a Custom Design upgrade:

If you let us know specifically what you’d like to do, we can tell you whether it’s possible here on WordPress.com.

Thank you for your guidance. We have gusts this week. Short of time, will continue as S.A.P.

Hello, The gusts were guests.
I see my Blog is in the public domain.
What I whish to do with my Blog is to display pictures and text related to my interest, to have a news bulletin and email or Blog connection, Widgets relating to my correspondents interest offering products and information that may result in me receiving commission.
Thank you for your help to-date but I regret I’m getting overwhelmed with information and am looking for someone to build a Blog that I could edit.Michael

Hi Michael, I know building a site for the first time can be a little overwhelming. You might like to have a peek at our beginners guide:
You can have email subscribers to your site by adding a subscription widget:
