   I have recently purchased the WordPress magazine with a few free themes on a disk, but have leant the magazine itself to a friend. I really want to install the themes from the disk on to my wordpress as well as some other themes from another site. I have found lots of bits of information about it which all include changing codes etc in files, but I do not feel comfortable doing that myself as I do not have a clue about any of it! Is there not a simple way of doing it without having to set up hosts etc? I have a free blog no upgrades.

   Please Help!!
   My current blog - http://www.kellyworsnopdesign.wordpress.com

   The blog I need help with is kellyworsnopdesign.wordpress.com.

   Here is info about the differences between WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG:

   WordPress.com Cons

   We provide 200+ themes (and adding more every day) which you can customize, but you cannot upload a custom theme
   You can’t modify the PHP code behind your blog
   You can’t upload plugins
