 * Hi everyone.
    I am currently still using B2 0.61, I would like to upgrade to 
   the latest version of wordpress and use some of the new features. Is it possible
   to just use the wordpress engine and do away with the themes and layouts etc.
   Cuz what I need to do is to keep the blog as simple as possible in terms of layout
   and themes so as to fit it into my website. Is there a way to just extract the
   wordpress code for use? The new coding looks really complicated. I will apprreciate
   any advice. Thanks in advance!

 * This is how one of my blog looks like, the way I want to
    keep them, but still
   able to use the features in wordpress like the media plugin, etc.
