    I have a wordpress blog right now, however I am working on changing themes and want to design my new blog with the Genesis Prose theme. Is there a way you can be working on it but not make it live until you have it just like you like it?

    You can install the theme and modify the code in the files before you activate it or install it locally and do the same thing live.

    Will you be able to view what it will looks like and save it to work on at a later time if it takes longer than you think? I don't want anybody to be able to view it live until it is completely done. Thanks for your help.

    Yes. Save the changes to the files and preview it until its ready then you can activate it.
