Gadgets and the Welcome

This is a test of the Gadget for "Text." If this is placed at the top of the blog, it should stay in that location. This is a good way to post your Welcome statement and have it stay in place instead of floating to the bottom of your list of posts. You may rearrange the location of these gadgets on your blog page.

Instructions follow:
Go to the Layout tab in your blog. Click on "Add a Gadget" in the box below your title. This opens a new window with a list of Gadget options. Scroll down to "Text" and click on it. When the "Configure Text" window opens fill in as desired. "Save" and check your results.

To change the look of this element once it is created, go to Layout-Fonts and Colors. Choose the element you wish to edit and then select the color or adjust the size up or down.

Note: To left align text, see the blog posting below.

Editing your template

Although Blogger has a limited number of templates, you do have the ability to modify these. When you select a template you can choose a variation by clicking on the bubble or option in the sample. After you find one that you like, you can edit it further by going to the Layout tab and play with the colors and fonts, gadgets, etc. to make it more personalized. Some template have color combinations that make it hard to read the text. This is how you would correct that.
