That's just a tag in your code that shows that you got it from Createblog. It doesn't effect your code at all.

okay i was a first time blogger skinner about two hours ago... and now im pretty sure i've got this whole thing down.

website designers: this is going to be a breeze for you.

Blogger skinning is basically like website designing. You can even skin in dreamweaver! its totally customizable, whereas xanga isnt, and u customize everything in xanga using css.
just design a webpage

then where ever you want your blog to be, make a div

inside that div put the blogger tags in.

here are the blogger tags:

Start with

<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><br /><blogger><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com --><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com -->

for the date:

<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><BlogDateHeader><div align="right"><br /><$BlogDateHeaderDate$></div><br /></BlogDateHeader><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com --><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com -->

blog title number:

<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><br /><BlogItemTitle><$BlogItemTitle$><a <br />name="<$BlogItemNumber$>"> </a></BlogItemTitle><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com --><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com -->

for the posts:

<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><div class="blogPost"><br /> <$BlogItemBody$><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com --><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com -->

for the post footers

<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><br /><a href="<$BlogItemPermalinkURL$>" <br /><br />title="permanent <br />link">#</a> posted by <a <br />href="mailto:insert email here"><$BlogItemAuthorNickname$></a> | <br /><$BlogItemDateTime$> | <a <br /><br />href="javascript:HaloScan('<$BlogItemNumber$>');" <br /><br />target="_self"><script <br /><br />type="text/javascript">postCount('<$BlogItemNumber$>'); <br /><br /></script></a>div><br /></div><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com --><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com -->

end with

<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /></Blogger><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com --><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com -->

easy right??!

Yup, I love blogger and xanga equally. The thing about blogger is the e-mail posting. I love being able to post to my blogger through e-mail. You gotta go premium for that on xanga.

For all of the people replying and saying they don't know how...LEARN TO MAKE WEBSITE LAYOUTS FIRST!!!! lol. Reading over this tut. it implies that you have a knlowledge of HTML. If you do, then you are more likely to get it than others. I think that solves many problems...lol.

Yall's schools let you go to blogger and xanga? Those sites including .tk sites are blocked by our school systems Sonic firewall. "This site is blocked and your actions have been recorded" lol.

I think a lot of the problem is the fact that you can have multible blogs on one account, so some people (esp. coming straight from xanga) get confused with "user name" and "name of blog" and "url of blog" and all of that neat stuff...

kliki

May 15 2005, 12:20 PM

Ok, so you have this things in div boxes. Do you make the background layout just as one image? Or as a background? Does that work?
That would be easy if it is...I think.

hello...can i ask sth? for my blog skin, whenever i add an entry, the page will go longer than ever. how can i make it such that all the entries are in a FIXED box with a scroll bar so as to prevent the "UNFIXED" box for entries to go longer.

Wow, this looks...really simple.
When you take away the pre-made layout html, blogger html is really quite simple. Thanks a million for this, its awesome!

i wish to add, if you have friends using other journal they could comment on your blogger and leave their link unlike in xanga you should be a xangan as well...

don't get me wrong, i love xanga as well..

hi! I'm a newbie myspace website builder. I've come a long way alone basically, found your forum & tutorial, so here I am & here's my question or comment...

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!
i really, REALLY, wanna be able to do this!!! bear with me, forgive my ignorance, please ^_^

where do u find the info to insert? ie: BlogItemAuthorNickname,
$BlogItemPermalinkURL, ...

do i post text in about me, the blog itself, or does it matter?

easy wrong!

moorepocket

Sep 10 2006, 10:07 PM

it does matter. You need that as the body of your blogger.

i need help!

editing my blogger template is impossible!

i'm completely new at this.

i mean, i've used livejournal and that wasn't so hard. i got the hang of html and the bb codes and whatnot and i don't know if this sounds completely stupid (i'm sorry!) but i can't get any of the codes to work. something about the 'Please make sure all XML elements are closed properly.' bit. i honestly have no idea how to get around the widget thing.

if anyone had the time to read this rather lengthy cry for help and can help me, please please please let me know! :]
