[theme-reviewers] WP.org theme preview

[Tyler Cunningham]

 While we're on the subject of this theme, I have a question for the author. 

Is the page supposed to be entirely blank when I install it? I was intrigued so I decided to check it out for myself, and in installing it both locally and on my server I cannot seem to get anything to display on the page. 

I also downloaded the theme and could not fine a read me file or anything like that. Is there something I'm missing here?

Is there any way to test how the theme will preview before I upload the next version? Or are there any guidelines for settings up some defaults for the preview?
