When I started my blog, I spent countless hours trying to figure things out. For me, it was trial an error mostly. Good luck to you...you will get it :)<br /><br />-ReneRenéhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08651977756534816441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212528499850193463.post-50679643852501543812011-01-15T10:40:31.560-05:002011-01-15T10:40:31.560-05:00I have to say that google is my best friend when i...I have to say that google is my best friend when it comes to trying to figure out new things. Google your question and I bet you will find an "answer" that's understandable. <br /><br />On the whole font thing unfortuntately blogger only has so many fonts to choose from that are standard. But the joy of Live Writer is atleast you have the option to change your body text - it won't change your title text.<br /><br />To find cute "buttons" (that's what those pictures are called htat are used in the side columns) try free blog design sites - that's where I got that cute chair... <br /><br />I also follow some blogger tip blogs - I found those via google as well ;-)<br /><br />HTH!Katy @ Eat Drink & Decoratehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15818115033955594576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212528499850193463.post-54704362807499908032011-01-15T02:15:47.675-05:002011-01-15T02:15:47.675-05:00Hello Madelyn!

Sometimes, you can just click on something you like, copy it, and paste it into where you keep your pictures, then retrieve it from there. Like those little signs that say "thank you for following me". Just make sure it's not someone's original artwork. If it's something you see all over the place, then it's okay! There are lots of blogs that offer free things for your blog. This is the one that comes to mind. <br />http://www.freeprettythingsforyou.com/2010/11/free-thanksgiving-printables.html<br /><br />I always take my pictures during the day, in the brightest room of my house. No flash. No direct sunlight.<br /><br />It took me a long time to get the hang of things...and I still have lots to learn!<br /><br />Have a fun weekend!<br /><br />Paulette :DBeedeebabeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00245249753637268186noreply@blogger.com
