Blogspot, eh?

I'm really not feeling this whole "Blogspot" thing, I already have a blog online at http://www.livejournal.com/users/soulfularies that I am perfectly happy with? Can you even customize your blogspot page? Or can you only use templates that others have made? And if the only way to customize your page is through extensive knowledge of HTML, I'm screwed. I will play with this a bit more, because I don't quit on shit I don't understand, but dammit if after a few attempts, I'm still not feeling it - I'm GONE.
