  I am a novice. I bougt a theme called morning. Then I learned that I needed a WP Blog to use it. So I got one… Now I am trying to upload the theme using the tutorial you provide and there is no tab at the top that allows me to upload from my PC where the purchased theme is located… uggh. This is frustrating.

  I’m sorry, but themes can’t be uploaded to WordPress.com. That’s a feature of self-hosted blogs that use the WordPress software, available at http://WordPress.org.

  You may use any of the available themes we have under Appearance -> Themes in your dashboard. You can use the Custom Design Upgrade to customize one of the themes we offer:

  Note that we already have over 160 customizable themes to choose from — check them out at the Theme Showcase:
