  I have tried maaany templates from wordpress repository, but all of them look really different, all of them looks like a blog, or something. It doesn’t show images, it has no style, anything!

  What have I tried so far:
  -> Settings -> Reading -> Choose (A static page)
  -> On page attributes, I have only two options (Default Tempalte and Widgetized Template), choosing Widgetized Template I got a single feature from the real template.

  ps: I don’t want blog style.

  What else should I do?

  Thanks!

  Themes don’t come as their demo. It’s up to you to customize the theme to your needs. Do read the manual of your theme to customize it.
