 * I have a feeling this is a very simple answer, so thanks in advance for your 
   patience.
 * I am using a slightly modified version of this theme:
    my site: [http://skjfamily.com](http://skjfamily.com)
   theme site: [http://www.dimension2k.de/index.php?wptheme=Dimension+2K+-+desert-theme](http://www.dimension2k.de/index.php?wptheme=Dimension+2K+-+desert-theme)
 * I want to add this photo blog within the blog above.
    [http://www.taly.com.ar/tan/](http://www.taly.com.ar/tan/)
 * However, I do not want every post at [http://skjfamily.com](http://skjfamily.com)
   to post within the photoblog, I only want to display specific photos, to make
   it a portfolio for some of my photography.
 * Somehow I need to have two themes active at once. Do I need to create another
   domain or something? I’m very new to this, so please pardon my ignorance.

 * _Somehow I need to have two themes active at once_
    I don’t think that would 
   work.
 * What about having a second installation of WordPress in a sulfolder of [http://skjfamily.com&#8230](http://skjfamily.com&#8230);
   like
    [http://skjfamily.com/photo](http://skjfamily.com/photo) ? and for that(
   photo)blog you should install only that tan theme.
