Blogger HTML Issues

I thought it would be a good idea to just put the html in a text box so you guys could just copy and paste directly from here, but that apparently isn't working. I am now currently fixing all of the html that I put into those text boxes because they aren't working correctly when pasted into the edit html area. I sincerely apologize if any of you guys grabbed the code for these and it came out wrong and wouldn't update your template. Please give me some time and I will get this right. I also have two more layouts coming so look forward to those. For now, after I get the html fixed, I will upload it to Google Docs so you can copy and paste the html from there. Sorry for the error.

Wordpress Layouts

Wendy recently asked me if I would be willing to learn how to do Wordpress layouts because her friend is moving from Blogger to Wordpress. Normally I would have had no problem with that because I always like to learn new things and I was more than willing to create a few Wordpress layouts, but then I registered an account with Wordpress so I would have somewhere to create and test layouts and they expect you to pay 15 dollars a year just to be able to edit the CSS to customize layouts. Later down the road when I'm a little more financially stable I may come back to trying to learn to make layouts for Wordpress, but at this time I am not able to do so. I'm really sorry about that Wendy, but I greatly appreciate your compliments.

Oakley Layout

I present the Oakley Layout. This one I think is one of my favorite ones, it kind of has a bit of a country vibe to it. When I downloaded the digiscraps that I used to make this layout it made me think of Annie Oakley lol.

Busy Busy Bee

I am working on teaching myself how to use the layout HTML so I can maybe start making blogger layouts. I love the layouts that Freyja Silver does and I hope she doesn't mind but I've swiped a couple of her layouts' HTML so I can study it and learn what each part does etc. Next I'll be keeping an original version of the HTML and an editable version so I can work with it myself and see what changes I can make. About the only way I learn is by doing things like this. I don't think I could ever learn this out of a book because there's way too much to over think in the books lol. If I can go in and change this that and another to see what it changes and how it works that is what really helps me learn it lol. So there are new things coming hopefully lol. I think I'm doing well with my headers, the first one was good for my first one ever, but as I look back at it, I realized it could have been a little different. So today before work I'll be working on new layouts just to test out. So cross your fingers, I'm hoping I'm successful!

Introductory Post

I am Willow Silverhorse from Confessions of a Country Witch. I recently got into creating different things with GIMP which is an application very similar to Photoshop. I mainly created this blog to test out the different things I'm doing and show them off if you guys are interested in looking at them lol. Periodically I will post the new things I've created and possibly offer things like blog headers, etc. I don't know enough about HTML at this time to make blogger backgrounds and such, but if I ever get there I'll let you know lol. I'll also show off some of my paper crafts as well since I'm really getting to enjoy making them. Thanks for stopping by and hope you enjoy what I have to offer!
