  Hi grayfieldgroup,

  On WordPress.com you are not able to upload themes you have downloaded from elsewhere. You are able to pick from the large number that is in the theme gallery already though.
  http://theme.wordpress.com/

  If you want to use a theme you have downloaded then you are going to have to setup a self hosted version of WordPress from WordPress.org

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  Hope that makes sense.
