   What I want is very simple:

   My work that I post is divided in 3 categories: Print, Motion Graphics and 3D work.

   I want to be able to create 3 pages (one for each category above), and put posts inside each category where they belong. (3 pages that are all part of my one blog. I have an art blog, and within there different topics)

   NOT:

   Put all my posts on the home page, and then be able to write only the one post in each new page I create.

   I realize that I can keep adding writing and pictures to the one post in the page, but I really need them to be separate.

   As I said:

   Have a "print" page with print related only posts in it.
   have a Motion Graphics page with only motion graphics in it,

   ETC.....

   THANK YOU

   The blog I need help with is szoldroanna.com.

   Pages we bloggers create are static ie. they do not automatically update and are for content that rarely changes. Only the dynamic Categories pages created by the software when we assign Categories to Posts will automatically update.
   

   The front page of the blog by default will display your posts (not pages) in reverse chronological order, with the most recently published post on top. Though there is only one dynamic page in a blog for posts and we cannot post to more than that one page, we can create the appearance that we have posted to more than one page.

   We organize posts by assigning categories to them. You can create a custom menu and add the dynamic automatically updating categories pages created by the software into the custom menu.

   There are many common errors, misunderstanding and misconceptions when creating custom menus and you can read about them here > http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2011/12/19/custom-menus/
