Does anyone know if you can create your own design for the free blogger.com account, obviously, the blogger search at the top would remain. I just want to try and tailor the look to match my site.
Thanks.

you have to edit the css on your own, but their code is shitte so is a pain in the ass to customize your blog

you just go in and edit the template dontcha.
i used to have a blog on my site and id edited the template so that when someone posted it put a tiny pic of the poster beside the post.
worked sweetly.

i choose one of their free layout, then download the page .html to my desktop, edit it in Dreamweaver (easy as 1-2-3) and then copy paste the code to the Blogger website layout edition page.
Its easy. You can change EVERYTHING and do EVERYTHING.

does anyone publish their blogger blog right to their own url?
the blogger documentation makes it sound like you just have to specify an ftp path. is it really that easy?
if anyone does it, can you send me a url?

Blogger is sooo easy. I did this a while back...
I set up 4 feeds with the same Blogger account and customized the CSS templates.

DesignThis,
so did you just go into the blogger prefs and set up the ftp path to your site?
that looks good.

Easiest code for hiding the Blogger nav bar:
#b-navbar { visibility: hidden; }
I used Blogger for a year and a half, with roughly 15 different layouts (it's how I learned CSS).
It's as customizable as you want it to be for a simple blogging tool, but it's limited beyond that (multiple pages are a no go, for example). If you've got your own domain, use WordPress. You'll be happier in the long run.

Modifying Blogger's blog is easy as 1-2-3. Really.
FTP work #1.
you can insert your blog in a IFRAME or any page you want on your website.
MAN YOU CAN DO ANYTHING YOU WANT!

I was going to use blogger, but agree with HRTWRK, if you got some server space, http://www.wordpress.org is the go.
I've just got mine going http://www.youmustremember.org its just a basic template at the moment, but want to get in a customise the whole thing.

that's right, in fact, check out http://www.niphal.com/ it's an adaptation of Wordpress :) It's so dang easy too with simple php and css to change around :D
