I'm fairly new to wordpress.org and I want to change my theme.

I've got a load of content though, will I lose any of this,
or will it be ok?

Thanks
Mark

You're just changing the theme not the whole content.

Changing a theme will not remove content unless it is content you hardcoded into the theme. Your posts and pages are contained in a database not in the theme itself.

What I've done is uploaded a new theme but previewed before I activated it.

Found that as you say...my content from my actual blog stays the same, but edits I originally made to the theme before don't show on my new one, such as side bar edits etc....

Not to worry though, I realize how it works now :-)

Cheers
