You lose no posts or archives or comments when you switch themes. When you switch themes, the templates from your old theme, as customized, remain in place; if necessary, you can download, for instance, sidebar.php from the old directory and copy any modifications to the new version, subject to the new theme's CSS. If both themes are widget-aware, widgets should transfer without incident.

Hello,

I don’t really know if this will help with your problem, but I recently came across this site

http://www.mytemplatebox.com

Basically on this site you can download free website templates and page layouts, flash templates, business templates, css templates, wordpress themes and joomla templates.

I hope it helps

Any customizations to CSS or the theme itself would be lost (possible header images if you changed them). As for posts and sidebar items, you shouldn’t lose any of them. Always make a backup of the database first if you’re concerned of loss.
