Would you like to give your Tumblr blog a distinct look with a premium theme?

Tumblr includes hundreds of beautiful themes, and a wide majority of them are available for free.

Login to your Tumblr dashboard, and hit the Customize link on the right under your blog’s name.

Add a Premium Theme to Your Tumblr Blog

bring up the Theme tab to look at the available free and premium themes.

Notice that the Premium Themes are listed first, and the standard free themes are listed at the bottom.

Once you’ve found a theme you like, choose it to preview it in the main Customize window.

You’ll notice the price of the theme listed directly below it.

check that to look all around the theme in the preview before you purchase it.

You cannot try customizing the HTML of a Premium theme before you purchase it, however.

Now open your blog in a new tab or window to see your new theme in action.

The good news is, you might customize your Pro theme just like you would standard free theme.

Your theme may have more or less options in the Appearance tab, depending on the theme.
