  I get tired of themes very quickly and I don’t know if I’ve found the one that truly fits my blog. I am concerned that if I keep changing my theme though, my visitors might get tired of it and not want to continue to follow me or visit at all. Does anyone have an opinion on this?

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

  Yes, your visitors will find it trying. It helps them if you have a consistent visual identity.

  Okay, great. Thank you. I just keep feeling like my theme isn’t the right one. Any advice about that?

  It really depends on what you are looking for. We have over 200 themes available in the theme showcase. We also have a Custom Design Upgrade which will allow you to make adjustments to fonts, colors, and more.

  I visit sites for the content not to see the fancy theme

  A suggestion you might explore is to start another blog to use for testing.

  Make it a private blog. Then export your live blog and import it to the new private blog. The result is that you have a blog you can switch themes as often as you like without your readers knowing. When you find a theme you like, then change the theme on your live blog and add the widgets, formats, etc you did on the experimental site. That should not be a complicated process so you will be able to change quickly.
