Are you trying to install WordPress on your hosting account to move away from wordpress.com?
Yes, so I can upload a theme from studiopress.
Make sure that you have uploaded the files into the right location. If you need help along the way, refer to the detailed installation instructions. Also, justhost may have an automated WordPress installer, so you may want to ask them about that.
Once you have WordPress installed, follow this guide to move your wordpress.com blog.
Been at this for 6 hours now… all i want to do is upload a theme to wordpress. Any suggestions appreciated!
