Thing #3

Creating a blogger account and adding an avatar.


I personally already had a blogger account so I opened my current account and went to the dashboard and clicked the button "Create a blog". I filled in the form that popped up with:

• the title of the blog
• the blog website address I wanted (This took a while because many of the ones I first tried had already been taken.)
• filled in the word verification
• clicked "continue"
• My new blog was created.

To add the avatar to my new blog I opened my yahoo avatar account and then went to http://avatars.yahoo.com/export.html I copied the html code and then went back to the blog site.

• Click "Layout"
• Click "Add a Gadget"
• Click "HTML/Java Script"
• Pasted the copied html code here
• Save
