New To WordPress is this right?
-
I am new to wordpress, but am a 10 year veteran wiuth joomla, i was excited to move to wordpress in the hopes it would make creating sites functionally easier.
In joomla we have something called “jomlapack” which unpacks a template and all its contents and shows it exactly like the one you bought, then customization can occur
I just paid 48 bucks for a template or “theme” for wordpress and all i get is a black page saying hello world, anyone care to edumacate me on what i might have done wrong
the theme can be seen here
http://soundwave.wizedesign.com/
and this is a link to the site im making
As you see they are not created equal

FYI: I am not looking for a whole lot of customization, as it looks in the preview will work fine with me with of course some photo changes and content additions, i hope i did not get scammed!

You are not doing anything wrong – a new blog with no content and a new theme will look like that – you need to add some content (Pages & Posts) for your site to look like a regular web site or blog
However
The site you are asking about does not seem to be hosted on WordPress.COM so you need to make friends over at WordPress.ORG the keepers of the software you are using.
This site is for support of sites hosted on WordPress.COM. You should address your questions to WordPress.ORG the keepers of the software you are using: http://wordpress.org/support/
The forum at WordPress.ORG is not connected to WordPress.COM so you will need to open an account at .ORG if you do not already have one. You may use the same email at WordPress.ORG as you do at WordPress.COM.
For more on the difference: http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
If you are asking for help with a WordPress.COM site then we need a link to that site to give you accurate help.
