  Hi, I used domain mapping for my blog and I want to install a theme that I bought in another website.
  The thing is that when I look for the button “Add new” it doesn’t appear in the “Themes” section… Do I need to use the Premium access or something?
  I read that I won’t be able to upload it if I have the “.wordpress.com” sufix, but I don’t know how to use my own domain at the admin section… is it possible?
  Thanks in advance =]

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there, schattencito! Unfortunately, wordpress.com does not allow the uploading of custom themes. : /
  You can get more details on this subject here:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/adding-new-themes/
  If you are set on using a custom theme, you would have to use use the WordPress self hosted CMS from http://wordpress.org
  For a better explanation on the subject, check this link out!
  The difference between wordpress.org and wordpress.com

  If you need more clarification, just let me know!
