Wrong theme displays when you go to my site

  I’m trying to set up my site, and chose to use Twenty Ten as my theme. When I check the Themes menu under the Appearances tab, the correct theme is displayed as my choice–Twenty Ten. However, when you go to my site (http://downtowneatsuw.com) the theme is DePo Masthead, and none of the work I’ve done is present (pages, widgets, menus, background, header, etc–it is entirely different). Any ideas as to why that crappy theme has hijacked my site?

  Thank you.

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

  Literally thirty seconds of “freshness” after I posted this question, the site now seems to be working. Does anyone have an explanation so I won’t worry about this going forward? Did I just need to give it a little time for everything to work out (with GoDaddy nameserver changes and WordPress domain mapping)?

  Nameserver changes can take anywhere from 24 to 72 hours to propagate through all the literally tens of thousands of nameservers around the internet although it typically happens in 24 or less. If it has been less than 24 hours, you are probably going to experience some wackiness where one time it will work and then one time it will not. It should settle down though in 12-24 hours.
