Layout Change #2

I finished re-doing my blog!

(YAY with cheering!)

I decided I didn't need the Blogger Nav Bar, the background is fine, the titles don't need un-bolded, i found a header picture I liked off another template, and I can live with stock fonts. lol.

It took me 3 hours total laying with icepacks on my back with my laptop on my belly to get it how I want it. So, for now, this is how I want it. Hopefully, I won't be changing it up every three seconds. (But those of you who know me, know better. Really.)

Included on this blog are several nice (cool, i like 'em) features:

- Photos - Every week or so, I will post 10 new pictures to the photo slideshow of photos I love that are stored on my computer.
- Links! - You are now to privy to about 1/4 of the links in my bookmarks folder categorized
into nifty little subheadings. Yes, I like bookmarks.
- Comments - You can comment. (wtg blogger.) You just need a blogger or a Google account.
- Email it - if you especially like my post, you can click the little letter icon at the bottom of the post and email it to someone! Very nice.
- Archives - you will never miss or lose a post I wrote that you liked. Just click the month and it'll show you all the blog post titles for that month. Voila!

I am very excited about this new layout and I like it. (!)
Now, I am going to bed because it is very late and everyone should be sleeping.
the end.

Layout Change

I'm pretending to know HTML.

I found a layout I liked that I thought I could easily edit to suit me. So, I downloaded it, uploaded it and viewed it. I then proceeded to change one thing in the HTML, refresh the blog and see what changed. Then, if it was what I wanted, I'd change it to what I needed it to be. I did this over and over and OVER again.

Do you like the rough draft?

Here is what I learned:

No layout in HTML is "easy" to change. lol.

It took me an hour and a half to edit what I did tonight. I managed to change the colors of the links, change the font to a stock font, change the header picture to my yellow dots and change the color of the calendar dates.....yup, that's about it. (!!!)

oh my gosh. craziness.

BUT, I am enjoying myself. :)

I still want to:

1. Make a collage on a Photoshop program for the new header
2. Change the font of the blog and post titles
3. Add my old widgets back in
4. Possibly unbold the post titles (depends on which font I can get it to use)
5. Change the background color of the page (there are 3 sections and I'm tired.)
6. Make the Blogger Nav Bar come back! (!!!!!)
7. Make something GREEN on the page. (I like green today.)

So far, that's all. hehehe.

Last thought: I still need to figure out how to use a font that I downloaded instead of one that came with Microsoft Word. Any ideas?

New Layout

I updated the header image.
I'm learning to use GIMP
and this was one of my first projects on it.

It's rather annoying, I think.
Possibly it's just because I'm not sure how to use it.

Alright, the computer screen is starting to blur,
so I must go to sleep now, work was long today.

(I might still play with the layout some more, not sure I'm quite happy with it.)
