  Oxygen showed up for me with 3 columns, and with “search” at the top of both sidebars – how strange! I cannot figure out how to control both sidebars – it only seems to list the “primary” sidebar under widgets, with nothing listed as being installed on the “secondary” sidebar.

  Also – under theme options, there seems to be no way to choose 2 or 3 columns – is this possible? If so, how?

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

  Have you consulted the theme description page?
  http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/oxygen/

  Widget Areas
  Oxygen offers seven widget areas:

  The Primary Sidebar displays categories and archives by default, and the Secondary Sidebar displays search, links, and meta by default if no widgets are configured in Appearance → Widgets.

  The four Footer Columns and After Post widget areas are optional and will display only when configured. The After Post widget is handy for including a brief author description or perhaps a list of tags or categories to help readers more effectively discover your awesome content.

  Thanks, timethief – I hadn’t really understood it. Thanks.
