These are some general settings that will effect how your blog entries look.

  • Background Color - Choose your background color of your blog entries by clicking on the little color palette icon and choosing your color from the pop up box or find your color code from an HTML color chart.

  • Alignment - Decide whether you want your blog entries to be aligned to the left, right or center of the page.

  • Width Length - How wide do you want your blog entries on the page? Do you want the text of your entries to go all the way across the page or do you want them shortened so they look longer? You can choose your width by number or by percent.

  • Default Font - Choose the style of your words, they can be plain or fancy. There is a drop down box to help you choose but they don't offer any preview for this so you can see what the font looks like before you choose it. Also choose the size of your words and the color.

  • Normal Link - Choose the color of the words in your blog entries that link to other Web pages. Also decide if you want the links underlined.

  • Visited Link - A visited link is a link that the reader has already clicked on. Choose a color and if it should be underlined.

  • Active Link - An active link is one that is unclicked. Choose a color for them and decide if you want them underlined.

  • Blogs per Page - This is where you decide how many blog entries you want per page. You can choose from 1 - 15.
