No, that's not what I meant. I write articles in the web interface, but the 
blog content is then uploaded (published) as static HTML-pages to my own web 
space using FTP. This means I can have the blog on my own site even though I 
don't have control over which components are installed on the server.

Yeah, that's what I can't do with my web host.

Can you customize a few colors or style sheets, or have you complete control 
over every aspect of the HTML/CSS that the blog consists of?

Ugh, that doesn't sound good. How's that possible when they require word 
recognision before posting a comment (if not logged in to a google account)?

I guess time will tell how well Blogger works out for me.
