Ok first tut...
If you are like me, lazy and can't be botherd with all that grey matter stuff but still want a blog that is effective, got a commenting system and easy to customize then try this...
( im not good at explaining but hey)
step 1: Place your text ( ur blog entry) in a simple div layer of where you want it to go on your site. set width n hight and all that to match your layout.
step 2(optional): If you want to jazz it up a bit like i did and with each entry you could put a image with text around it.
<img src="image.gif" align="left"> would be what you put. Image.gif being replaced by your picture...e.g flower.gif or whatever.
step 3: Now for the commenting system. if you pop over to http://www.haloscan.com it provides you with a free commenting script. I found it really good and easy to use. Sign up free and follow there simple instructions of installations ( which are dead easy to follow )
. It gives you it in steps...step 3 where it asks you to link with a button you can change that to a text link as long as you give them credit.
And thats about it. Customize it with css or what ever you want. I like it. I just cannot be botherd to do greymatter( even tho its good) and all that stuff. so people on free hosting sites can use this aswell.
im not brilliant at explaining but i hope this makes sense if not i can try and explain problems a bit better. If you want a example look at my website to see it in action. smile*
