Why does this paid account have less themes than my free account?
-
Hey, what? I just took a job upgrading this commercial WordPress blog. When I went in to change the theme, I only had a few choices compared to the free blogs.
Any ideas? I need to get the free themes in a paid account.
Thanks!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

There is no such think as a paid account for a free hosted blog from WordPress.com. There are upgrades we can buy but none are upgrades that convert our free blog into WordPress.org installs.
If you are referring to a free software install from WordPress.org then the theme gallery is here > http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/ and you will have to use FTP to upload themes of your choice into your install. The support forum is here > http://wordpress.org/support/
The reason there are not 120 free hosted WordPress.com themes in the dashboard of the WordPress.ORG install is because the two run on different software and the themes (even ones with the same name) are coded to run on different software.

We can clear this up if your are specific and provide details. Please post an active link starting with http:// for the blog in question

It sounds like you have agreed to work on a WordPress.ORG site – way different than a WordPress.COM site here.
You should take @TT’s advice and make friends over at WordPress.ORG

Then what I posted above is correct we cannot help you here at WordPress.COM at all with that site. WordPress.org installs do not include WordPress.com themes. they cannot be run on WordPress.org software. All support for that site must come from here > http://wordpress.ORG/support. The WordPress.org theme gallery is here > http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/ and you will have to use FTP to upload themes of your choice into your install.
Best wishes with the install. -
That site does not seem to be a WordPress anything, however the WordPress software is great for building all sorts of web sites.
Amble on over to WordPress.ORG, find a theme and away you go – good luck
