   I was deleting themes I wasn't using and deleted Genesis. Now my site and WP Admin won't load. Please help.

   Try //www.yoursite.com/wp-login.php and see if your site falls back to the default theme after you login.

   Any chance you can simply re-upload the Genesis theme from your last backup using your ftp client?

   That did not work. It's still just loading a blank screen.

   We're still too non-specific.

   What didn't work? Appending /wp-login.php to your URL - or - replacing the theme from backup using your ftp client?

   Admin won't load.

   Is that because you can't get to the link on your front page, or because appending /wp-admin or /wp-login.php to your URL both fail to bring up the login page?

   At what point exactly are you getting a blank screen?

   If I try loading the site I get a blank screen. If I try going to wp-admin or wp-login.php I'm still getting a blank screen.

   I wouldn't expect that to happen if all you were doing was deleting themes. I think even if your entire theme directory was unavailable, you should still be able to log into the dashboard and navigate the back end. Sounds like you have something else happening. Maybe restoring your WordPress files from your backup might be worth a try. If you can think of anything else you may have been doing with any other files at the time, that might give you a push in the right direction. Sorry I wasn't of much help.
