I’ve got a new look. The motivation came from my friend’s post about her “makeover”. I have always wanted to personalize my blog with a banner, I just didn’t know how. And once I figured that out…well, I just couldn’t stop. I should really just take an html class. As much as I enjoy the trial and error method, I think tonight did me in. I went through several different “looks” and had the foresight to save them all, just in case I want to change something down the road. My two biggest triumphs were figuring out how to get the mini-dot background into my non-mini-dot template, and how to widen the body where these posts are located. And, as time consuming as it was, I have to say that it was totally worth it.

A question for anyone…I want to make my header a little smaller and I’m not sure how to do that. I tried making the picture smaller, but that didn’t work, so I think it’s probably something in the html.
