intuitive?

So I really expected blogging to be more intuitive. First of all, I have two blogs - one created by Yarsh for Maddi (madilynfaith.blogspot.com) and this one that I created after trying to post a comment on a friends blog only to find out that only fellow bloggers can post comments. So that means that I have two log-ins, one as Maddi and one as abbimolly. Any idea how to switch users? Therefore, this blog may in fact post as "Maddi".

Second, how do you change the look of the blog? I found the "blogger" links that direct you to many changes purely by accident. When you go to post a blog, it pulls up this tiny window where you can enter text and a few other items. However, if you click 'save draft' and click on 'edit drafts', it takes you to a whole new screen with all sorts of options and tabs along the top. Additionally, you have more options when typing in a new blog than you did before, like adding a picture. Why can't blogger take you to this page to begin with?

I generally thought of myself as intelligent - how little did I know that I would be brought down by such a simple thing as a blog...oh, and I still can't figure out how to change the template but I am not giving up yet...
