It is a green, but I want it a few shades lighter. My current Blogger template doesn't allow a variation. Any suggestions on how to change it through html?Kristen Laurencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03832263040185490691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7452897359193577804.post-25891168778802017512007-05-05T15:41:00.000-07:002007-05-05T15:41:00.000-07:00Ooh!

When you log in, go to 'layout' -- at the top of that page there is a tab labeled 'pick new template.' Within that window are all the templates blogger currently has available. You can select various ones in turn, and then click on 'preview template' to see how your blog would look. <BR/><BR/>If you choose a new one, yes, as Melissa says, make a copy of your current template first.Lideshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05639247123614128212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7452897359193577804.post-20385411241119585542007-05-05T07:58:00.000-07:002007-05-05T07:58:00.000-07:00LOL, I had to try a link out to make sure what I'm...LOL, I had to try a link out to make sure what I'm about to say was correct. Shawna, your link didn't work above because it's in bulletin-board-style code, not HTML. You need to use the pointy brackets <BR/><BR/><> instead of these []<BR/><BR/>And put the URL inside quotes. The closing tag is < /a > (minus the spaces before/after the pointy brackets--I had to put them in here or they would just turn to live HTML).<BR/><BR/>As for your question, you can do a search for "free Blogger templates" and find many 3 column templates you can download and paste into your blog's template. Just make sure you back up your own template before you do that! (Save it to a text file, like in Word.)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07315947967701781840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7452897359193577804.post-3348564158367522442007-05-05T07:25:00.000-07:002007-05-05T07:25:00.000-07:00Oops, I guess the Blogger doesn't accept that HTML...Oops, I guess the Blogger doesn't accept that HTML in their comments, or maybe I typed it wrong!

Here's another question that I just cannot figure out: I see some Blogger blogs have 2 sidebars, like <BR/>[URL=http://www.justenjoythejourney.blogspot.com]This One[/URL]. How'd they do that??Shawnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13573908493081781618noreply@blogger.com
