  I’m super bad when it comes to all this css stuff. Perhaps you fellas could point me in the correct direction.

  How would I embed my blog to simply show up like http://www.videocopilot.net/blog/ instead of the whole webspace becoming a blog?

  My guess is that I would need a specific theme/or special css layout to do such a thing.

  Option 1: Self-hosted. Go to wordpress.org, download and install the software on a host of your own choice. The software is free, hosting and domain will cost you around $10/mo. Download one of the literally thousands of free themes made for this kind of site.

  Option 2: Free-hosted on wordpress.com, with purchase of CSS Upgrade, $10/yr. If you cannot do with the themes provided, the only theme fully CSS-able is the Sandbox theme, see http://sndbx.org/ for examples. Note: NO commercial content allowed on wordpress.com.

  My suggestion for you is #1.

  Correction: it’s $15/yr for the CSS Upgrade.

  I already have a site all set up and ready to go, I guess I just have to find the correct theme. But for the most part they are all thick and ugly, and look like free wordpress pages. I guess I have some learning to do.

  If you have a site set up, you’re in the wrong forum and need to be at WordPress.org. Our answers here won’t apply to you at all.
