I'm planning to start my own blog soon but I'm having a difficult time making a decision between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs and I'm looking for something completely unique. P.S My apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!

I also checked out the "more" feature for breaking up posts on the main page. I still think I should limit it to 5 or 6 recent posts. Any input is appreciate, of course ;) Lynn It works! :D

I'll work on the comment enabling right away. And great suggestions on the main page layout - I like the idea of showing just excerpts but wasnt sure how to do that. I think I have it figured out now ;-) You rock!! ~ Lynn (FYI I was kidding about kissing feet lol - I would hate for you to hold me to that considering I'll be seeing you in Boston in a few weeks :p) haha Thanks, Teli!!

When I wanted to remove the rel=nofollow from my blog, I used <a href="http://bronski.net/data/nonofollow/" rel="nofollow">a plugin</a> - unfortunately, I don't think this plugin works with WP 2.0. I'll try to track down another one and let you know. To have the comments show on the front page, you'll need to open the index.php file and find the comment: <code><!-- if you wish to enable comments on this template, remove the two forward slashes ( '//' ) from the line below --></code> You'll also want to edit the archive.php and the category.php files as well to enable the comments links there (optional). I made sure to comment as much as possible in case anyone wanted to enable comments. Number of posts on the front page, huh? Well, I believe that one's going to be a personal choice. I post ten, sometimes five, entries on the front page of my blogs, but I also truncate the post content with the <code><!--more--></code> tag. I would say that if you tend to write long posts and the full content is available on the front page, then maybe 3-5 posts would be a happy medium. Just my opinion though. ~ Teli Hey Lynn,
