Aha, sounds like it's still a bit complex. But I may but up to the challenge now - I wasn't so much back in like '05. It helps that features-wise I just want a basic blog with links to previous months, RSS feed, and site search. Handling on images would be a plus but I'm willing to fiddle with it *g* I mean, I did a Drupal site knowing no Drupal or PHP to start with in like a week (though it still needs themeing, which is 100% my laziness).

Do you have any templates/base themes you'd rec for CSS theming? Like TR for DW, or Zen for Drupal.
