    Ok I have most of the stuff done but Im stuck now. Ok, i have my domain purchased with godaddy and hosting with godaddy. I have my nameservers set up for wordpress, the whole n1, n2 stuff and I have wordpress installled on Godaddy. I read this article http://help.godaddy.com/article/5234 and I did everything it told me at the bottom, I uploaded a theme to the wp content and theme folder but now my new theme isn’t showing up on my site http://lilwayneflows.com/ What am I doing wrong. Please help me. Ive spent enough money as it is and I need to figure this stuff out.

    The URL shows me wordpress blog. Did you recently change the nameservers? Nameservers propagation take 24-48 hours.

    Your domain is pointing to http://lilwayneflows.wordpress.com/ (view source and you’ll see).

    You need to point the nameservers back to GoDaddy and turn off domain masking, or whatever it’s called, on WordPress.com

    You may want to ask at the wordpress.com forums for help, I’m not really sure what goes into setting that up over there.

    Well I couldn’t figure out how to turn off domain masking, but I did point the nameservers back to godaddy. Any more help?

    Looks like it’s pointing back to godaddy but that you’ve not configured it ‘right’ (I use that term loosely). Check with GoDaddy’s help to see how you’re supposed to configure it. I don’t use ’em so I don’t know.
