Bling Out Your Blog 2.0

with Wilna Furstenberg and Kayla Aimee Terrell

7. Blogger: Fancy Titles and sidebar titles.
The Video Part1 and Part2: Creating custom fonts for your Titles and Sidebars.



For this lesson, I am only telling you what I learned. I cant really HELP you. Therefore I will refer you to http://www.kevinandamanda.com to read through the comments for trouble shooting!









This is the coolest trick with blogger ever, I only discovered it recently (THANKS KAYLA AIMEE) and I totally love the personal look it gives my blog. You can read a brilliant step-by-step instructions + screenshots for this process HERE. The video is in 2 parts. I followed kevinandamanda.com's instructions. So you can watch the video and then it will not be so difficult. : )

Making your handwriting into a font.
This is one of the coolest things! You can make so many different fonts and it's all free! It took me 15 minutes. The website is here: YOUR FONTS.COM also, watch the video on how to use it over there.

Leave me a comment if you are HAPPY and if you need HELP...The only condition for me to HELP is that you SHOULD HAVE watched ALL the videos and read all the instructions!

Hi Wilna, I used the 2 column template yesterday, but today I decided to change to the 3 column. I managed to get the background in, and the Post Titles are changed to the font I wanted, but I can't seem to get the Sidebar Titles right - they are still in the default Blogger font. I'm sure I saw something about copying and pasting a piece of code twice for the 3 column template, But I can't seem to find it. Can you point me in the right direction?
thanks a million!
Toni
