I want to use the blogger for announcements on my website. I want to be the only user, and the only one to post, with no comments from other users. The blogger is included in my web-hosting package, but most of the configuration seems hidden from me, or im yet to find where config files etc are stored. Also, will this blogger let me frame it? i noticed that the bulletin board won't let me, if i cant with the blogger then i wont be able to use it on my site.

do these changes in b2config.php (lines 42-47)
Code:
# set this to 0 or 1, whether you want new users to be able to post entries once they registered
$new_users_can_blog = 0;

# set this to 0 or 1, whether you want to allow users to register on your blog.     
$users_can_register = 0;

Now there is noone that can register (be sure to do this after the admin account is tested, and maybe add an account for yourself called nztechie or something at Level 9. Why? It is cooler to have "posted by Sigg3" than "posted by Admin", when you're the only blogger anyway, but it is completely up to you)

On comments, just remove this from the b2 engine (the code you've put on the page where you want the blog displayed):
Code:
<?php comments_popup_link() ?> (if you have pop-up comments)

or

<?php comments_link() ?> (if you have integrated comments)

Now no one should be able to comment on you either:)
