Well, I bit the bullet and upgraded to Blogger's new template format. I'd been putting it off for months because I was afraid I'd lose the links and gadgets over there on the right. I think I figured it out.
There are a few things I'd like to change. I'm not too thrilled with the dark blue background, for one, but the dohickey for changing colors doesn't seem to allow a choice on that, and if I pick a different basic template now, I'd have to do all the links and gadgets all over again. I think. I'm not too sure. And the text area seems narrower than the old format. Not sure how I feel about that.
Well. It's done for now.

Later - Tried another template, got rid of that dark blue. The pinks still aren't muted enough, but if I can get the code for the colors I want elsewhere I now know where to plug them in. Eventually.

I already don't like this. I want a muted grayed pinkish mauvey kinda soft color. Last time, I could shade the colors on a sort of color wheel thing. This time, they offer this, this, or that paint chip, take it or leave it. Like a hardware store of fifty years ago.
ReplyDeleteI like the new template. On my computer at home, the pink is much brighter than it is here on the computer at "work". But it's nice. Thanks for reminding me. I think I might play with the templates on my LJ today while I'm here wasting time... ::wicked smirk::
