  You cannot remove the author byline unless you purchase the custom design upgrade. See here for details on purchasing the annually renewable custom and CSS editing:

  Or you can change to using a theme that does not display an author byline. Here’s a partial list http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2009/08/15/author-displayed-or-not/

  @timethief some of those themes don’t exist (or i can’t seem to find them. Do you have a list with all the themes of 2014?

  Some themes have been retired and there is no up to date list or themes that do or do not provide author bylines. However, there is a detailed theme description page and a live demo site page for each theme. By accessing both of those you can see which ones have author bylines or not.
