Five things I've learnt about HTML
In redesigning this blog starting from one of the standard blogger templates, I, a complete web design novice, have learnt a number of things about html coding. Here's 5 of them:
1. how to adjust the "padding" for blocks of text;
2. how to customise the colour scheme by selecting a colour and converting the RGB (red green blue) colour code into hex html code;
3. how to insert my own jpeg file as a header;
4. how to remove the annoying and not-very-funky rounded corners from the main text box, sidebars and footer;
5. how to remove the post title icons.
Still a lot to learn. Expect to see occasional changes to the layout as I continue to fiddle ...

You are very very clever.. I am not, hence why I still have a boring standard template.. How did you teach yourself?
I did a search on the Web for "adjusting blue html text box" and I got your blog!! I've dealt with bits and pieces of HTML for years, and even designed a site. But after many years not using html, I find myself only ankle deep in making sense of it. Right now I'm trying to create a stationery template for Mac Mail. But the text box is frozen to a certain dimension in my final template, so that, in Mail, I cannot write a long text... , and I don't know how to adjust this in my Adobe GoLive. Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Laura
