I'm probably the last person to find out about this...but...if I'm not, I'll share with you. Blogger has this really cool new way to design the look of your blog! That's why my blog looks different (again). It's called Blogger in Draft. All you have to do is sign in to
draft.blogger.com. This will take you to your dashboard. Dashboard will look the way it usually does, except for the option to check "Make Blogger in Draft my default dashboard." Check this option if you want to keep messing with the look of your blog. Click on Layout. Layout will look like it usually does, except there is a new option (near the top of the page) called Template Designer. Clicking on this will take you to lots of cool design and color options. You can use a slider to adjust column widths. They even have background patterns and pictures your can add! I like this! Even posting is improved! I am still tweaking, but I think this is fun! If you use it, leave a post so I can take a look at your creation. Enjoy!

Thank you Doreen!! I am going to try this tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing - I will definitely take a look!
ReplyDeleteThis is really fantastic. Thanks for sharing! How in the world did you find this? I love the adjusting of the widths. I would always do it on my own, what a pain.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Thanks for the tip Doreen. I have had a 10 min play with my layout and it is lots of fun ! Have to fix my header , otherwise all is much improved :) Vicki
ReplyDeleteI absolutely did not know about this! Thanks, Doreen, I'm headed there next! Enjoy your weekend.
ReplyDeleteHey Doreen, sounds like you might have an edge with blogger. Maybe you can help me??? Since they updated blogger I can no longer place a link in my photos. I have tried everything. I have emailed blogger, gone to the forums wit no reply. Haaa what else is new. I have even tried going back to the old editor. Do you have any ideas?
ReplyDeleteThanks

Brilliant! Thanks for sharing that little tip. I will see where that takes me as I have been using the backgrounds that I find that are free. Enjoy the day! Erin
ReplyDeleteYou certainly weren't the last to find out - I hadn't seen it either. Like the new look blog.
ReplyDeleteOff to play with mine ;)
Thanks for the tip
Ah, if only playing around with Wordpress was this easy.....
ReplyDeleteok, thank you for this awesome info, BUT I ended up playing with this for HOURS yesterday! My blog looks super fly though so I'm happy. I had to tell the fam I was doing homework! Your blog looks great btw!
