  I was given a lovely wordpress theme the other day and I’ve just discovered that I can’t use it whilst my blog is hosted via wordpress.

  Is there any way around that?

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

  No there is not. We cannot use themes from outside wordpress.COM. Themes here have to be modified and securitized and then a bunch of wordpress.COM specific stuff has to be added and then it has to be tested to make sure it works in all browsers and browser version. Themes from outside wordpress.com, which have not gone through that process would be missing large chunks of features and such that are unique to .COM.
