  I am trying to use the theme ‘Sydney’, but it is not in my current themes in WordPress. I downloaded the theme to my desktop, but there is no way to install to my account. I need help please. Thanks.

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

  WordPress.com sites do not have the ability to have themes uploaded.

  Sydney is a theme already in WordPress, but it’s just not showing up in my themes. Is there a way to get it to show up?

  Sydney appears to be a WordPress.org theme and isn’t in the WordPress.com theme list.

  I did not realize there were two sites. Are they the same company?

  The are the same company but WordPress.org is for WordPress sites that you would host on your own ISP (download the WP program and upload the site via FTP to your own server, etc).

  WordPress.com is for sites that are hosted by WordPress.
