i wanna make it pretty

Published on February 10, 2004 By Muggaz In Pure Technology

Hello friends.

I was wondering if any of you friendly bloggers out there could offer me some assistance on a few matters.

I have seen some pretty blogs on this site, and i would like to change mine's appearance also.

I would also like to know how to include a link to my favorites

and also how to insert pictures.

Sorry for being naive, but i dont know these things, and how am i ever going to lear if i dont ask???

Thanks

Edit your account. In the edit, you could change your color scheme and insert a link to your favorite.

For images in your blogs, you need to find a server/website that will host your images. There are a few around the net, available for free. Just Google for some. You should have no trouble. I was lucky enough to have a friend to host my images on his server, so if you know someone who can do this for you then great. It'll save you the trouble of finding an image hosting site that is easy to use and doesn't put too many limits on what you can do... such as file sizes and subject matter.

Use a HTML editor or something like MS Frontpage to easily create your masterpiece and then just post the code to your blog. A little practice and you will have a sweet looking page in no time.

Have fun creating

Muggaz check my blog site

And you owe it to me to click "insightful"

Looks like you can only do this on your original blogs - not replies.

for image hosting try iownjoo.com. they offer a free temporary account if you can't figure out how to host any other way.

get the path and use <img src=PASTE-IMAGE-PATH-HERE>

: line break (same as hitting enter key)
 : two line breaks

xxx: xxx is bold
yyy: yyy is italicized zzz: zzz is underlined

<blockquote> asd asd asd
dasd </blockquote>

indents the stuff in between the blockquote tags.

to link stuff:

<a href=http://russellmz.joeuser.com>LINK TEXT</a>: LINK TEXT links to the website

decent html tutorial site

you can combine them by "nesting tags". the image i posted links to my blog. i put the <a href> tags around the <img> tag. bold and italicized and underlined bold and italicized and underlined
