Signature!

Grab Button!

Want to make a grab button? I finally figured it out! Here's the instructions:

1. Make the button

Make a button, badge, banner or whatever. Make it eye-catching and inviting. The goal is to get people to click the button. I used Photobucket to create mine. Make sure that the image created is appropriately sized. You may have to play around with it to get it to the size you want. Mine is 160x120, but it could probably be a little bit larger.

2. Display the button and code in your sidebar

Login to your Blogger account.
Go to Layout>Page Elements.
Click Add A Gadget.
In Add A Gadget window, select HTML/Javascript .
Enter the title of your widget e.g. Link back to us or Grab this button.
Copy the code below and paste it inside the window.

Be sure to make the adjustments of "LinkToYourButton", "LinkToYourBlog" and "YourBlogName"
Click Save.

For Blogger, copy and paste this code into HTML/Javascript gadget

<center><a title="YourBlogName" href="LinkToYourBlog" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="LinkToYourButton" /></a></center>

Where:

"LinkToYourButton" is the direct link to the button.
"LinkToYourBlog" is of course the url of your blog.
"YourBlogName" is of course the name of your blog.
You can change the size of the text box by changing the width and height values.

Enjoy and start gaining followers in a more exciting and creative way!

Testing 123

This blog is exactly what it says it is, a testing spot for me to try out new free blog backgrounds, headers, buttons and all other things bloggy! I'll try to make it interesting and give credit where it is due so that all of you can find all these cool freebies too! I am new at all of this so any suggestions are always welcome! I will also be posting my crafts here, stuff that I do when I am not completely busy with my three children! Maybe I'll go as far as tutorials for all the fun stuff I make! We'll see!
