I', new to WP and WPMU
Have installed ok and added a new theme. Have set up 2 new blogs on their own sub domain, but when I use the upgrade button although I get the success message, the 2 new blogs remain the same - in the default theme.
Am I missing something that's obvious to you experts?
I thought I was doing really well until this afternoon and I can't figure it out at all.
Any comments gratefully received...

It doesn't sound like you're missing anything.
Under the Site Admin menu, there is a tab or sub-menu item called Upgrade. This does not change any files. If you have not upgraded any files, clicking this will do nothing.

"when I use the upgrade button although I get the success message, the 2 new blogs remain the same - in the default theme."
The upgrade button does absolutely nothing to the themes.
If you;re really asking why can;t you see the new theme on the sub-blogs, that's a different question.
Go to Site Admin -> Themes. You have to enable themes to be shown in the Appearance menu on the other blogs.
To change the theme on a sub-blog, go to the backend of that blog, visit the Appearance menu and activate the theme.
