  I want to get a custom design for my 2010 Theme. When I click on “Get Custom Design” –http://store.wordpress.com/premium-upgrades/custom-design/#
  nothing happens. I tried reloading the page, closing the page and reopening, and manually pasting the url into the address bar. None of this worked. I’m open to suggestions.

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

  Are you logged in under the exact same username account that registered that blog?

  Are you running one of the browser versions at http://browsehappy.com ?

  Your http://www.philkogan.com site appears to be a self-hosted WordPress blog and not a WordPress.com site. Which is probably most of the trouble if that is the theme you are trying to get this to work on.

  Good catch. Thank you.

  WordPress.com upgrades are only available for purchase to those who have free hosted WordPress.COM blogs. Your site is a WordPress.ORG site. http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  Twenty Ten is a theme available to both WordPress.COM and to WordPress.Org. The theme was originally developed here on wp.com. The version available on wp.org is different from the wp.com version.

  Please note that there are different kinds of wordpress sites, and each has its own pluses, minuses, rules, specifics.

  Your site is hosted somewhere using the wp.ORG software so there is no need for you to get any custom design. You are paying for your hosting and so have access to ftp or other options to modify your CSS already.
