New Blog Tricks and Tips

I've spent way too much time on the computer tonight messing around with this blog...and came across some new tricks (well at least they are new to me). I'd been wanting to find out how to customize the fonts for my post titles and dates and I found out here: Kevin and Amanda's Free Fonts. She has some super cute fonts and online scrapbooking stuff and let's you download a ton of things for free. Check out her blog: http://www.kevinandamanda.com/

Then, I've always liked how some people have cute little ribbons or scrolls to divide each blog at the bottom of a post, so I found out how to do that here: Shabby Blogs Post Dividers Tutorial

The last thing I am still working on is creating a signature. Kevin and Amanda's blog where I found all the free fonts has a tutorial on how to add your signature, but she doesn't tell you how to create one. She just says you need to make one in photoshop or some other program (that I don't have) and then she tells you how to add your new image to your blog.

Then I found a ton of people online that have used a website called My Live Signature to create your personal signature, and I got it to work, but you to have to post the html code at the end of every post...which I don't really want to do every single time. I've included that signature at the bottom of the post for this time...but I don't really like it.

If you have any tips or suggestions on how to have a signature that just says my name only, please post a comment :)

Anyway, it's late and time to catch some zzzz's. Good night!
