  We cannot add themes at wordpress.COM, we are limited to the themes found in the dashboard under appearance > themes. Themes found on the internet are for self-hosted wordpress blogs using the software from wordpress.ORG.

  If you want to use a theme that is not shown in appearance > themes then you will have to self-host a blog on a third-party hosting site. Figure an average monthly cost of $10 to $25 depending on space and bandwidth requirements.
