Is Paper clip skin available for Gallery

Hi All, Do we have paper clip theme in 2.1. I can see the paper clip skin only for my blog and not for gallery, readers and others. I remember seeing paper clip in the theme section.

Re: Sidebars in 2.1 (Adding content to left side sidebar)

I seem to get an error due to the activated sidebar (through master.ascx) as I try to go to threaded view as I'm reading posts. Anyone knows the reason and what to do? Also the blog homepage seems unable to work. Cheers, /Rob
