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 for the date: blog title number: for the posts: for the post footers end with easy right??! |

Ok im just gonna post up a brief tutorial on blogger. I learned alot and hoping to be a blogger mod soon
![]() Ok, the main page is www.blogger.com so look around the site for a while. To sign up, click the sign up button, or somthing similar if they change the page layout. After you sign up and do everything including your first post, on the right of the blogger.com screen should be a small box that says YOUR BLOGS On mine, the one that says Come see His Grace, is the title of my blogger. It allows you to see your blogger, whether you want to see your skin or etc. If you click it, it will take you to a page where you post your new....err....post. On top, there should be a few links that say Posting Settings and Template. Posting, lets you post another post. Settings lets you change your website page title and description. Template is where you put your Blogger template that ill be designing soon. In the mean time, use nekked's. Under it, it says Create a new blog. Note that you can have more than 1 blog meaning new skins to tryout and a skintester w/o creating a new account. Edit you profile lets u change you name, email, etc. On the blogger main page, there are Blogs of note and Fresh blogs. This is like xanga's Newly updated Content and Featured Content. In the middle of the page are some news. FAQ Q: How do i get some help on my Blogger including problems and such? A: On the main page look at the top right of th screen. There should be a small box (orange) with HOME ABOUT and SUPPORT. Click support and follow the steps. Q: Do you have to pay for it? A: Nope its free like xanga, but for 15 a year, you can host it on blogger w/o ads imagehosting and such Q: Will Blogger work on a Mac? A: Yup it will! We believe other browsers will be compatible with the Classic Interface as they evolve. However, Firebird and Camino are all still in beta testing. Safari has just recently gone final and there are known issues which affect the Blogger application (link and style buttons). Blogger will re-evaluate how these browsers perform with the Classic Interface. Q: Why choose Blogger over Xanga? A: Not saying you should. Xanga is more popular and easier to control and such. Blogger in way mroe customizeable and the skins are in <html> format. More will come after school |
