  Apparently it isnt just a simple upload. I’d like to use “oriental” in my .wordpress blog but have no idea how to go about this. Can anyone give me some help please?

  Also by linking your name to your blog it will serve the purposes…
  If you need to ask a support question in the forum then it will make it easier for the volunteers to see what blogging platform your using & will aide them in giving you a more accurate answer to your question.

  Thanks. If you’ve found a ‘wordpress theme’ somewhere out on the internet, then I’m afraid you can’t use it here. Those themes are designed for wordpress.org users, who download the blog software and self-host.

  WordPress.com users are limited to the themes found under Design-Themes on your dashboard.
