Cool Help for bloggers on Blogger!

Looking for help on how to customize your template on Blogger? I've created lens on Squidoo all about it: Customize Your Blogger Template.

Included on page are instructions on how to:

1) Install a banner and get those lines and that text to go away.
2) Change the width of your blog.
3) Share images.
4) Add FeedBlitz.
5) Or find a whole new template to work with!

I made this lens at the suggestion of Jan Marie Caruso and I hope you find it to be helpful!

If I've forgotten to add anything important that you would like to know about, feel free to leave me a comment! This lens isn't meant to be a full introduction to Blogger (so I've left off easy things like changing your blog's colors around and adding page elements). But are there other things that bug you about Blogger that you don't know how to fix? Leave me a comment (here) and I'll add that info to my lens! Thanks so much!

Wooo! Thank you...just what computer dummies like me need. Now if I could learn how to take a decent picture, I'd be almost set.

Wow, thank you so much! This is easy to read, too. I've saved it in my favorites (web) so that I can go back to it and make changes to my blog banner at a later date! Again, TY !!!!

Thanks for the information.

After seeing other's with cool Banner's I decided to make my own.

I took a photo that my nephew Dan took when he first moved to San Diego, CA.

So ask him if I could use it. and of course said yes.

I took the photo and resized it. and then put a watermark on it.


Something I have been thinking about doing is making 3 other banner's. So this way I will have 4 different ones for each season of the year.

Summer, Fall, Winter and Spring.

Thanks Nicole, you motivated me to actually *start* a blog and after I did that the dh decided he had to have one too. I even managed to 'kinda' get a good header going on. See what you started? (link to new blog below!)
