Default Stupid question about theme sizes

Please Login to Remove!

I downloaded some themes OTA, one was 159000 and the other was 500000 (estimate) sizewise. Is this 159000 bytes?

Im on a limited data plan so was wondering about this.

I'm not relly understanding the question you are asking. Did you download 2 seperate themes and 1 was 159k and the other 500k?

Yes I was asking if the theme sizes were listed in bytes since it comes from my data plan (limited data plan) because I downloaded them OTA. Thx

do you think im okay with a 200mb plan? also a question for you since you seem very knowledgeable, the other day i was on a website using opera browser and i pressed end but didnt actually manually close the browser. when i clicked it later it was still on the webpage. would it have been using extra data in the background since it was left open on that page? or no since it wasnt refreshing?
