  Good day. I purchased the theme Linen (http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/linen/) as I have an account on wordpress.com. I would like to use wordpress.org instead and want to use the theme purchased. Is this possible and if so please advise on how I may access it? Thanking you in advance.

  Hi there,

  The themes at WordPress.com are optimized for use here at WordPress.com, and can’t be used on self-hosted WordPress blogs.

  You can find and purchase the self-hosted version of Linen at the theme author’s site:
