I know that I haven’t posted in a few days. Just so you know, I actually have plenty to say, I’m just busy messing about with html things. I’m not good with html, so it’s taking a lot longer than it would… oh, anyone else.
Also, if anything goes all screwy please let me know. I tend to become bold with lack of failure (not necessarily success) and start messing about where I’m not supposed to be. For instance, it took me two days to locate the area in blogger that you use to change the template code so that I could stick in something PayPerPost wants in the code. Since I worked so hard to find it… Well, why waste the discovery on just one change?
Yeah. I’m like that. But it’s ok, so long as I remember what the change I made was so that I can go back and remove it. I do it all the time with MySpace, since MySpace isn’t a big deal… so far everything I’ve tried worked.
Coming soon- two more Writer’s Reviews, a post about the lovely Simon Haynes, possibly a post about why I write the writer’s reviews, anything that crops up in the mean time, and whatever else I feel like posting.

You haven’t switched to the new version of Blogger? It’s incredible. You don’t have to monkey with the code at all anymore as they make it so easy to do it otherwise. You might consider it. Only thing was I think I lost some of my images that I had in my sidebar, but you don’t have a whole lot of those so maybe it would be no struggle.
One thing I did back when I was using the old blogger was to copy all of the template code into a Word or WordPerfect document and save it. Then I could change to my heart’s content, and if I ever made a booboo, I could copy the original code back in and be no worse for the wear.
Nope- I switched a few months ago. But PayPerPost has a script that you have to embed into the template code.
You’re right about saving the code- I probably should do that. The only change I made other than the script was to insert “WordVixen” into a bit of a coding to make it more unique. Google ranks you higher if your content is unique and they actually count the code. Supposedly just adding a word or two in the right place is enough to “trick” the bots into seeing your site as unique.
