Can I ask some basic blog questions guys?

*I'm not a WP expert so try this at your own risk.

To customize the look and feel you need to mess around with the files in your theme folder

/wp-content/themes/yourtheme/files

It would be a good idea to read the docs at http://wordpress.org to understand how it works. I know a little php and it was fairly intuitive for me. But even if you don't know PHP the docs are pretty good.

As to posting in the future: when you make a post look for a little box on the right site that says "Post Timestamp" and set it for the future. You will probably want to install a plugin called "smart pinger" because I think the default pinger will ping when you create a post and not when it is actually published.

Hope that helps

You can also start with a stylish theme of your choice, and go from there:

http://themes.wordpress.net/

It'll take far less effort to get the end result if you start someplace close to it already.
