    All very simple!……unless of course there is no “activate theme” button and only a download button!….what then?

    1. Nicola, I’ll ask you…maybe you can give me a hint.

      Is there a way to upload an header image — I am new at this.

      Thanks!

    Hi! I’m looking for a theme to embed videos, actually we need to make something like a channel where we can put alltogether our training videos.

    Is it available the theme you use for wordpress.tv?

      The WordPress.tv theme is a custom WordPress.com design with a lot of tweaks and hacks, so isn’t generally available I’m afraid. There are quite a few video themes out there though – such as those from Press75 and the free VideographEX, among others.

  3. I chose freshy as my theme and uploaded one(1) photo which was used as the custom header for 3 related blogs. Is it possible to change the header (photo) again for my other upcoming blogs. I would like the photo/header to reflect my content as they are all on different places of travel.

    How do I go about doing this.
