    Question #1
    I recently set up a blog powered by WordPress on my site. It seems to work great with the new template etc and i’m quite happy with it. However, I used Go Daddy to create the database etc. And i’m a little unsure what happened. Did it actually create an account with WordPress for me? Do I even require a wordpress acount for this or is the password etc just managed through my blog on the admin page. If so, how do I create the password? I couldn’t find it on the Admin page….

    Question # 2
    I have downloaded a couple CSS templates, would it be possible to use this CSS template and just have certain features of the WordPress blog plugged in? Or is that a huge undertaking. At the moment i’m only familiar with HTML.

    Thanks!

    cycomykotron, if you have an account with Go Daddy, then you are not hosting here with wordpress.com. You will need to be in touch with Go Daddy and get access from them to your server space, download a copy of wordpress from http://wordpress.org/download/ and then direct your questions over to http://wordpress.org/support/ as this is the forum for the hosted blogs here at wordpress.com running on WordPress MU.

    If you want to keep your blog here at wordpress.com and not use your Go Daddy hosting account, then we can proceed with your questions. Let us know.

    When you get over to wp.org, check out the docs link as there’s instructions on how to add in a new theme.
