Blogging Help

Dear Blogging Friends,
For a while I have been tired of the generic blog "skins" (I think their called) available on blogger. I would love to personalize ours, but everytime I try to research how to do it, I can't seem to find an answer. Any ideas? I would also love to add a song to my blog.
I would appreciate any help. Between keeping up with my girls, keeping our house clean enough to show (yes, we are selling) and spending as much time as I can with Sean during this month that he is home I just don't have the time or desire to figure it all out on my own. Thanks!

A blogger friend of mine changes her backgrounds constantly. She gets them from PYZAM.COM. It is free, and they just put a small "logo" at the top of your blog that says "Free Blogger Templates @ Pyzam.com." I don't know anything about adding music :)

Hi Corrie -

I won't be much help on updating a template - but Beth might be (www.brucebunch.blogspot.com)

On the music, you can go to playlist.com and create your own list of songs. You can then get the HTML and bring it over to your template and add it.

I hope that is at least somewhat helpful.

Unfortunately, I've had no luck with the free skins you can download, so I'm trying to learn how to modify my own. In the meantime, I'm stuck with the blah generic ones too.

But, as far as the music goes, that I can help with. I use a free website called playlist.com. It's pretty straight forward with directions on how to add the player to your blog, but if you have questions, drop me a line.

Hope that helps!

Found this on another friend's blog...haven't tried it myself http://www.thecutestblogontheblock.com/ And, I sent a comment to another friend who ALWAYS has cute backgrounds. Hopefully she'll tell me where she finds them. And, if you just want a header or to add a picture to your blog try www.scrapblog.com

Hey Corrie! To answer your question about the "last post dated" blog list.. Just go to your blogger format page. Click add a page element and add blog list. It's a newer feature for blogger. I hope that helps. I like the new background!!! I created & changed my photography blog through the edit html section. I bet I could remove the "free backgrounds" button at the top of your page if you want. Just a thought. Let me know if you have any other specific questions! Love you!
