 * Hard to tell without a link to your site.
    You can try a validation here [http://validator.w3.org/](http://validator.w3.org/)
   to find some errors or when it’s the theme, than here: [http://www.xhtml-css.com/](http://www.xhtml-css.com/)
 * Can you still access admin and chose the default theme?

 * I can access admin fine, I downloaded another theme from the list u get in the
   admin section to see it that would work and it does, Its just the Custom made
   one, [http://factstream.singularity.ro/](http://factstream.singularity.ro/)

 * So it’s your theme that does it! I see that you are using 2.8; is that theme 
   2.8 compatible?
    Or are the products of [http://www.artisteer.com/](http://www.artisteer.com/)
   2.8 compatible?
 * Did anything go wrong with the upload (over FTP)?

 * Hmmm, im not sure tbh if the theme is 2.8 compatible i didnt think there would
   be a problem, Im going to try and get the theme working using a video tutorial
   i found. I have been uploading the theme.zip and installing it that way.
 * artisteer seems to be 2.8 comp, i cant find info that says otherwise
 * ty
 * -Nope tutorial didnt work either, Really confused about this.
