One day soon I'll learn how to set up my blog?????  I am using Blogger for the first time, as if you couldn't tell!, and I am frustrated with the templates.  The blog loots great, well kind of OK, in the template settings.  The I look at the live blog and it's not in the same layout.  I am not a techie, but the  point and shoot tools don't seem to do what i want.  Maybe its just me, but is anyone out there able to point me in the right direction?

PS: without me needing retraining as an IT technician and programmer please!
