Blogging for non-Germans

After having creating several different blogs for myself with some seemingly likely hosts, I have been forced to return here. "What do I want?" I hear the screaming horde asking. Well:
  1. the ability to upload files
  2. posting by category (and preferably secondary category options) (Ideally, I'd like to be able to create a hierarchical classification scheme for my posts like frassle but as I'm unwilling to expend any money at all ever that seems a trifle ambitious.)
  3. full unrestricted permission to play with my templates
  4. a "save as draft" option
  5. little or no advertising (unless its Google "targeted advertising")
Will twoday.net offer me what I want? I don't know yet because it's all still in German. I am investigating whilst I learn a new language. Thus far:
abbrechen = cancel
veroffentlichen = post
offline speichern = save offline (save as draft)

I don't even know what I was thinking

My beloved former blog and all it's clever witty posts are being held for a ransom of $35 dollars which I refuse to pay. So I have decided to start over.

I don't speak German though. Which is proving to be a problem, my new blog host being, it would seem, German and everything, therefore, being written in a language I don't speak. Thank god for Google translation. I will either give up on this and find another blog host elsewhere or I will learn all the words related to weblogs in German.
