 * Having a lot of trouble registering. I registered on WP.com not knowing that 
   it didn’t support customize theme sites. So kept trying to find the Install Theme
   button. =(
 * Questions:
    Am I correct that a custom theme site must be registered on wp.org?
 * Does the SQL DBase name and/or the User Name and Password on my URL need to match
   exactly the User Name/Database on WP.org. ?
 * This has been a bit of a learning curve. Thanks for your help. Jo

 * I am try to get started with wordpress but I am having problems. I uploaded the
   word press contents using filezilla to my host. The wp-config file has been properly
   edited,the MySQL database has been setup and my hosting company has enabled php
   support for my domain. I have uploaded the wordpress contents twice already without
   any success.
