    I bought my domain name through GoDaddy, signed up and bought their hosting but now I want a theme only available to WordPressers . . . should I set up an acct with WordPress and pay the extra $13-18 to switch over so I can get the theme I want?

    Sorry, you want a theme only available to WordPress.com?

    Which theme is it?

    You can’t get commercial themes from WordPress.COM and transfer them to your self-hosted installation. None of the premium themes are available that way*. But the freely available themes may have a WordPress.ORG version here.

    http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/

    *The exception is a commercial theme from the original vendor.

    I did download the theme from the developer’s site but the theme that’s on the wordpress site shows a tag line which the one I downloaded doesn’t seem to want to show
