A few questions for you wizened bloggers using blogger or blogspot, because I'm new to this and can't figure some stuff out:

1. How does one go about changing the name of the blog? When I signed up I entered in a name, but misspelled a word, so what's supposed to be "Voguing to Danzig" reads as "Voguing to Danzing." I fixed the title in the settings, but the name hasn't changed when I view the blog (though it HAS changed in the web addy).

2. How do I go about adding links in the margin? Is it a matter of chosing a certain template?

Many thanks!
Ray

1. Been awhile since I've tweaked that stuff on my blog, but if its not showing up as edited you may have to try the "Republish Entire Blog" next time you edit/update it. That might do the trick.

2. The link thing is pretty easy depending on the template you choose, or else just read up on some basic HTML coding and do it yourself. (A hint: if you see a blog with a link section you like, go up to "View" -> "Source" on your browser and see how they did it)

yeah best bet is to just steal someone else's template that you like. then tweak to your hearts content.

*always* backup your template in a .txt file in case you muck things up, which can be very easy.

cntrl-f is your friend.

dude. leave it misspelled. now that we're all aware of it it's become a classic in-joke.
