Can't find a cute one? Make Your Own!

A lot of people have asked me how to build custom backgrounds on blogs. Now, I would type all the directions here but my friend Jessica has already done it on her super cute blog! Check out the link to the post on her blog.

You do have to have some kind of photo editing software (like Photoshop Elements-Costco has a $30 off coupon right now for Elements 7.0) and a web album (like Photobucket or Picasa Web Albums). And you might want to check out my post here for a huge list of places you can go to download the different elements you might need to make your blog super cute too. Have fun!

Blog Questions For You

Okay all you blogging geniuses out there-I've got a friend who would like to know how to make a photo slide show and post it on her blog. Anyone know how?
And on that same note, anyone know why my layout keeps disappearing? I did it the same way as my Kellerspace layout and that one is still there. Very curious.
Anyone else have any blog questions? I know there are some of you out there with questions and some of you with the answers!
