hey awlala! ahahaha... i kinna like it waaaaaaaay at the bottom of yer page... ahahahaha... oh... erm, for your template, you hafta look for the tags that correspond to the column.

the good thing about blogspot is that they use straight HTML in their templates. HTML reads just like a regular written page - think music notes on a sheet of paper, or a regular typed piece of paper. it reads left to right, up to down. (hello? still there? good! :pleased: )

the other good thing about blogspot is that we get to use HTML tags, so we get to name our links any which way we like. so, for example, we can put "chums" between previous posts and archives.

on the template page, you skip the < header > part and before the tags with $, you might be able to find the tags that correspond with archives and entries. (more on the $$$ later ;-P)

we need to look for the tags that correspond to the big title "archives" and the little title, "i'm a newbie." it might begin with something like < $ i'm a newbie $ > and then < p > Archives < / p > . between that, we hafta key in our tags. i suggest just copying and pasting the tags for Archives and changing it to Chums or something. :-)

blogspot will have like < $ entry $ > or something like that to correspond to our entries. DO NOT TOUCH THEM!!! anything with a $ sign, *do not touch.* that's blogspot's code that keeps your entries in order. not a nice thing to mess with. trust me.

ok... i hope all that made sense!!! :-P HTML is FUN to learn, if a LOT time consuming. :swoon: i use it everywhere, in my xanga, my easyjournals, my greatestjournal (erm... coz my journal is just the greatest. ahahahaha!!!! ah... wells. can't resist. heehee). good luck!!!! :-D
