Am I in the wrong place to use Comic Press?
-
I’m trying to establish a site for an online graphic novel, and I’d like to use ComicPress, which I take to understand also requires the WordPress program. For hosting, the page about the WordPress program (http://wordpress.org/download/) instructs me to sign up for an account at WordPress.com, NOT WordPress.org, and I have done so, yet I can’t find any way through this account to actually install the program, and thus set up a comic site.
Did these instructions mislead me and I should have set up an account on WordPress.org instead, or is there some way to access the shell and SQL databases through my account here that I’m just not seeing? I am truly stuck. Shouldn’t WordPress.com give you access to install their own programs?The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

These are the realities > http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
At wordpress.com the ONLY themes we can use are found here > Appearance > Themes. There is no FTP access to wordpress.com blogs and we cannot upload themes into the period. -
Okay… it would have been nice if their Download page hadn’t directed me to get an account where the program can’t be installed, then.

I see what you mean on the page you indicate. Some web hosts will provide a wordpress.ORG install for you and and some will not. In either case here’s where you will be posting for support with your wordpress.ORG install. http://wordpress.org/support/
I’m sorry you got off to such a rocky start. You will need a wordpress.com account if you use the wordpress stats plugin and/or Akismat pulgin on your new install.
Happy blogging :)
