 * Hi. I have a new site I created. I installed a them which didn’t work and applied
   it to the new site. Even when I disabled the new theme, and did a “network disable”
   on the faulty theme, the new site still wouldn;t show up. this inlcudes the wp-
   admin page as well…
 * any ideas?

 * So the screen just went ‘white’
 * solutions:
    1. delete the theme from the server 2. go into wp-admin/network/sites/
   2b. select the site, edit. then go to settings, and change the theme to a name
   you know.
