   I opted to go with wordpress because everyone tells me its all that. I have yet to see it. Ive wasted hours of my time looking through themes and templates and they all suck. I havent seen one yet that has impressed me.

   I have downloaded three that I could live with that had 4 or 5 stars, and they are confusing to say the least. The first was all drop down menus with questions I dont understand to design it. I then did a search for drop and drag and downloaded two more. Neither are drop and drag even though it says in the description that they are.

   Are there any templates at all on here anywhere that are simple to use, that don't involve coding and have a good selection of fonts? I have yet to find one that has decent fonts for titles and such. Are there any that are a basic blank page that allows drop and drag design?

   I am so disappointed in what I have found here. I want the blog platform, but at this point, I am ready to go back to yahoo biz or weebly. Maybe those are elementary compared to wordpress, but at least they are easy and highly versatile.

   Can someone please help here?

   The blog I need help with is gator1565.hostgator.com.

   I am with hostgator and connected to wordpress.com with hostgator jetpack, so yes I really am. The blog itself does not yet exist because of the problem I am having.

   You need to make friends over at WordPress.ORG - you are downloading themes - at WordPress.COM you are limited to the 240 or so built in themes -

   This forum is only for blogs that are actually hosted on WordPress.COM - your software and themes are different

   WordPress.ORG has 1,600++ approved themes that are free
