How to make a blog button

Want to make a blog button?  Here is how to make one.

You first have to find a picture you like. You can use one of your own or you can find one on Photo Bucket.

In photo bucket you can edit your picture, make it smaller or bigger, add some words, etc.
Then save it to your album in photo bucket. Then go to your album and click on your picture and click on "share", then click on "Get Link Code".

You look for "HTML for websites and blogs" then copy and paste the code of "Clickable Thumbnail".

Then you need the HTML Code to copy and paste for your blog. All you will need the URL for the code. 

Here is my HTML Code, below. Just replace the URL for your URL (blog address) and replace the photo bucket URL for your Photo bucket URL.

And you need to change the size of the button too.

Usually everyone picks, pixel size 125px by125px, but I personally like mine a little bigger, like 150px by 150px.

There are allot of people who like bigger buttons too.

And also change the blog name too.

After you have all your information typed into the HTML, copy the HTML.
Then you want to go to your Layout, click on add a gadget.
You want to click on the gadget that says, "HTML/Java Script".
Type in "Grab my Button" on the top.
Then paste your HTML in the box.

Then click on save. Then you move your button where you want it on your blog.

What is in a Blog Name?

I thought up a name: "Mom's Misc. Adventures".

I have been trying to think of a blog name and description for this blog.

If anyone has any suggestions please let me know. I would love to hear them.

It is basically a Mommy Blog that will have useful information and giveaways, etc.
And I have added a new template, as you can see. I hope you like it.
Thank-you and have a good week.
