Why do I only see code buttons in the text editor?
If, for some reason, you don't see a visual text editor (or a series of buttons for editing without doing any html code) them you have to enable this option in the Users tab in the My Profile section. At the top-left hand corner of the My Profile page there is a check box that says "Use the visual text editor when writing" -make sure this box is checked and editing your blog will be much, much more intuitive.
