If you are referring to The Columnist, then know that every day we Volunteers here read the same claim from bloggers who have not read their theme description like this one http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/the-columnist/ and who fail to realize that they must implement the features they want to use. http://thecolumnistdemo.wordpress.com/

Please download the latest theme at http://galleria.io/customer/

So I went to Envato (which is where I bought Ciola (from Theme Forest). I have no idea why the name galleria.io/customer came up. Anyway, I was told to delete Ciola (by uploading another theme) which I did, but when I tried to upload Ciola again, I was told it was missing a css style sheet and that the theme was broken. Now, I know this sounds like the problem belongs to Ciola, but error message no. 1 turned up a couple of times after I went back to Canvas.

I have a ticket in with Envato, but they aren't answering in a timely way and I'm not sure where this problem belongs. I'm not a techie, so please help me figure this out.

Thank you,
Irene Ogrizek

However, you do not need to load the design tools unless you have the Custom Design upgrade, which it appears that you have not purchased. All of the very same functions can be accessed from your dashboard.
Appearance > Header
Appearance > Background
Appearance > Theme Options (applicable only to some themes)
Settings > Reading (set a static front page)
Site Title and Tagline > Settings > General

If you want to change themes on a free hosted WordPress.com blog you must be logged in under the exact same username that registered the blog and who is the Admin of the blog. Note that no content is ever lost when changing themes.

Go to Dashboard > Appearance > Themes
browse themes until you find one you like and click "activate"
or type in the name of the theme you want to use and
click the "activate" link when it appears

After you change your theme all you need to do is go here Dashboard > Appearance > Widgets > Inactive Widgets and re-install them where you want them to appear. The widget contents and settings will be the same as they were prior to changing themes.

If you do purchase the custom design upgrade http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/ I suggest being sure you are using a browser and version of it found here http://browsehappy.com and enabling third party cookies and JavaScript.
