Can anyone recommend an offline blogging client for windows smartphone?

I dont have a blog yet so not too concerned with compatibility with blog hosts etc.
I'm only after a few features:

1. must run offline then upload at end.
2. must be able to attach a photo.

Anyone done this?

Cheers

I think a lot of blogs also make use of updating via email.. ie. you email an address and the email is posted as the blog entry, blogger.com comes to mind

thanks for that, yes i've tried and it works, although i'm trying to post a photo also.

Ideally by attaching to the email, blogger won't let you post a photo this way, it just drops the file and posts only the text.

Try getting a blog on Wordpress.

Wordpress has couple of extension reading incoming mail and adding pics as attachments in the posts.

Had done this time ago...

Requirements:
1) Blog which runs on Wordpress
2) Access to the server via FTP so to install plugins
3) Modify a bit the plugin scripts (PHP) so to have exactly what you need.
4) A very difficult to guess email address
...and you're done.

Check Wordpress codex for the mail & attachment plugin.

In the meantime I'll try to see if the modified plugin is still somewhere on my HD home and if found will post it here.
