Blog design secrets revealed…

by Amy on July 7, 2009

in Ministry: Online, Uncategorized

I used to get so many questions about my blogs designs that I totally had to quit checking my old email at SplitDecisionz.com. I still get lots of emails here asking how did you do this and how did you do that so instead of going back to publishing tutorials at Split Decisionz I just figured I’d entertain some of those questions here. I will also be moving all of my old posts, including the free templates, to this site, for your use of course!

One question I got quite often was in reference to changing the font on your blog. My answer was always the same. Don’t do it. I still hold true to that when it comes to the actual post itself but I’ve succumbed to changing my post title recently as you can see and I know I’ll get dozens of emails about it so I’ll go ahead and answer it now.

My secret is…

Kevin and Amanda.

Yes, you read that right. Amanda posted a tutorial about how to change the font on your blog posts and ladies, I have to say that this is the first time I have tried to follow a tutorial on this and had it work. This one is the real deal and everyone who looks at your blog, whether they have that font installed or not, will be able to see the font just like you do.

So go check out this post from Kevin and Amanda: How To Use A Cute Font For Your Blogger Post Titles. BUT… if you have questions about how to do this please email Amanda since this is her tutorial.

While you are there check out all of her cutesie fonts too. She’ll even make one from your handwriting at no charge!

All of the fonts I am currently using on my design were created by her!

Be on the lookout for more tips like this in the future as well as more free blog templates. If you haven’t signed up for the blog feed then now is a good time!
We are about to get serious about this online ministry stuff!

You are such a whizkid at this stuff girl!!!

Thank you for your encouraging words today. I tell you..there are times you struggle through writing a post (or at least I do) then there are times, it clicks and the keys just don't move fast enough. That was today. The post was written by the LORD, not me.

When I read the devo yesterday in my book, I had to re-read it this morning…and still the tears came. FOR it is the vision of HIS that we are pursuing with all our hearts….the vision to share HIM with the WORLD…one blog post at a time!

I love you my Amy girl!
