  Hi, and welcome to WordPress. The following FAQ entry should clarify things for you:

  What are the different roles?

  hi.. thanks that clarified some things for me but im still wondering… lets say them being the author or editor and such, and that they can post and publish and do those stuff does that mean they’d have to know the password? or they log in and out on their own with their own password on my blog?

  The ‘different roles’ FAQ entry leaves questions in my mind also. It appears that an Author can upload files and a Contributor cannot, but are they equal so far as posts are concerned? Or does a Contributor’s posts have to be approved first?
