Well I love wordpress.com as much as anyone else does however when it comes to theme customization or install your own theme we are restricted unless you have an VIP account which costs several hundred dollar each month.. that’s why when i got into ‘serious’ blogging i switched to self-hosted wordpress., Nevertheless folks at WordPress.com are making sure that they don’t loose any more of their users and today they released a new theme named ‘ Vigilance ‘ that looks cool ( I haven’t tested it yet ) – anyway here are few features of this theme as described in the original post

Vigilance has a super-special set of features, which you can access under Appearance > Vigilance Options after you’ve activated the theme under Appearance > Themes. These include:
- Customizable colors: You set the background color, border color, link color, and link hover color.
- Alert box: A special feature just for this theme, the optional alert box appears at the top of the page and can contain an announcement or other notice that you want to keep prominent on your blog.
- Hidden pages: Enter the page ID numbers of the pages you don’t want to display, and they’ll be hidden from the menu at the top of your blog.
Vigilance also has a custom image header and special widget options. You can display one wide sidebar or two thin sidebars on your blog. As always, you control the look of your blog by adding and removing widgets under the Appearance > Widgets menu. But now, special to Vigilance: If a sidebar doesn’t contain any widgets, it simply disappears.
