  I’m so very confused. I’m trying to create a site. I need help. I really don’t want a blog, just a site. I uploaded photos but I don’t see them. I want the lindaspata.com domain, not lindaspata.wordpress.com. Can someone please help me?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I’m trying to create a site. I need help. I really don’t want a blog

  Please read this section Using WordPress.com to Create a Website http://en.support.wordpress.com/using-wordpress-to-create-a-website/
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/
  There are many common errors, misunderstanding and misconceptions when creating custom menus and you can read about them here > http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2011/12/19/custom-menus/

  See > Using WordPress.com to Create a Website http://en.support.wordpress.com/using-wordpress-to-create-a-website/

  A WordPress blog can either be structured as a page based website or its conventional post based structure can be retained. That’s why understanding the differences between posts and pages, http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/ comprehending the SEO implications of creating a page based structure, and knowing how to use custom menus http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/
  are key to decision making when selecting a theme, and setting up your WordPress.com blog. http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2010/05/12/better-blogging-at-wordpress-com-pages-and-posts/

  On one hand, none of the characteristic “blog” features like categories, tags, authors, dates, etc. can be removed from a free hosted WordPress.com blog without purchasing an annually renewable custom design upgrade and doing the required CSS editing.

  On that other hand, one can edit a WordPress.org theme free of charge. I suggest you read this comparison > WordPress.com and WordPress.org: The Differences http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  I want the lindaspata.com

  If you choose to remain here you can purchase a domain mapping upgrade http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/

  For starters this will get your domain name fixed – I am assuming you are the one that just registered your domain name at name cheap

  You need to map the domain name to your blog here –
