Anyone here ever heard of, or use Microsoft Live Writer or Blog Desk for wysiwyg blog entries?

I am using wordpress and would like to make changes to text (font, color, size) without having to use code.

I know it might not be very helpful, but Movable Type has all that built into the blog software.

I think they are releasing a free version of Movable Type soon.

I use Windows Live Writer pretty extensively for both personal and client work. For extensive WYSIWYG formatting requirements, it's great for me. However, Blog Desk has a great image cropper / adjuster built right in which saves you the time of managing a separate program. They both work very well, although Live Writer seems to have the edge as far as features go. I'm a lot more experienced with Writer than BlogDesk, though.
