 * Hello there..
 * I just did a huge mistake. I uploaded (via FTP) functions.php (from my theme)
   over functions.php (in wp-includes), of course, accidentally. And, guess what..
   My blog has stopped working. I tried to overwrite the original functions.php 
   from wp-includes. And, there was a change. Only background was visible (before
   that, there wasn’t anything, just clear milky white).
 * Also, I cannot access the admin panel (wp-admin) via browser. Actually, I can,
   and then I was going to login, successfully, and again, milky white.
 * I’m optimist. Sorry for my bad English.
 * My big mistake, online: [Svijet Kosarke](http://svijetkosarke.co.cc)

 * Someone else will give a better answer than me but, in the meantime, I would 
   suggest saving your theme locally, and then deleting all traces of WP (database
   too), and performing a clean install.
 * I’m sure there is an easier option though. But this is one option.

 * I just solve this problem. I just overwrite all wp files.
