  7. Thank you Pattee. You have to be in Blogger in draft first(make blogger in draft your default page) and then go to the layout page from your dashboard and it will be the last page under the tabs on the top. Right after "pick a new template".
    I am so glad you like my skelly.

  8. I have always had this morbid fascination with bones, Jan. LOL!! I wanted to be an archeologist. Maybe Day of the Dead had something to do with it.
    I needed the change in here. I am glad you like it!

  15. Thanks Anne, that was easy! LOL!!
    Anne, I thought it was pretty easy and a smart cookie like you should probably pick up on it real quick.
    You do not have to do anything except punch buttons and try stuff first. Do not hit apply to blog, that's all, just play frst. You can also download your whole blog and reload it if you hate the changes. They have a whole tutorial in there about it.
    I just went in and played with color schemes and borders and font for a few days before commiting to anything. The Budda bust is very nice for the outside.
    I would have liked to load my own picture for the outside background. It actually probably saved me from getting too busy though. LOL!! I like this right now and it feels good and I am so happy with the results. I don't mind helping if I can, so leap baby! LOL!! Some of the changes do not show up until you hit apply to blog, just so you know!!

  17. Hi Bobbi you are in the right place, just did a overhaul on the blog.
    I did not make the banner in the template designer, you have to do that in different program. The template designer just changes the colors, the backgrounds, the fonts and stuff like that. It was time for a change, I am so glad you like it!
    Love and hugs.

  23. wow, marie, your blog looks great! very very classy. the background highlights everything beautifully. i read your instructions on how to do this and it sounds so simple, but i would be afraid of deleting my whole blog. such is me...

    i've never seen skellies before and now i have pam's litle emily plush on my kitchen windowsill.

    re your comments about the incredible and special relationships we forge blogging: yes yes. it is amazing. xoxo

  25. No matter the art 'form' it is easy to get distracted & stuck on one path for a while lol. Don't worry about it we all go there sometimes lol.

    Cool skulls you can't go wrong with a skelelton or a skull or too. That reminds me i have about 80 to work with soon talk about getting stuck on a side track lol.

  26. Oh, oh, oh, may I just say I LOVE this!! It reminds me of living in New Mexico and all our visits to Oaxaca, Mexico. I so miss all the skull art, but we have plenty of it in our house... As well as real animal bones and skulls we have found out in nature. Can you tell we have a thing about bones...

    So glad you are having fun!! Love, Silke

    I think it is perfect that you won Pam's Emily skelly to go with your Emily!

    This blogger world is amazing isn't it?
    Hugs.
