Created a theme, what next?
#3
Welcome, Chris. Nice work.

You just upload the theme yourself when you are ready. There are some simple instructions in the wiki for the zip archive and the directories and files so that it displays its screenshot and installs without difficulty.

There is an unnofficial and unwritten code of 'Best Practice' for theming which you can ignore if you wish, but it makes it easier to test and change themes if your theme has most of the same elements as the others. I tried to include most of it when I used your beadysite template to make a tutorial here:

Looking forward to downloading it. I have a client's site nearly finished built on beadysite, I will let you know when it's done.

PS - in the wiki there is some stuff about breaking down a template into sections and using files like header.inc.php and footer.inc.php . It's totally optional, but useful if you have multiple page templates.
