I am so totally not going to tell you how long I’ve spent today trying to change my template. I couldn’t find one that I liked anywhere, and then I found a couple that might work, but there were problems with every one of them….so I’m officially giving up, because, you know, it’s not like I don’t have work I could be doing.
So. Damn. Frustrating.
ETA: Why does everyone in the whole blogosphere except me know how to do a custom picture for the banner up there? I can’t figure out how to do it with the template I’ve got now, and I can’t figure it out for the other templates I’m considering…grrr.

Um, Luckybuzz? Hi? My name is Maggie May, and I am *more technically inept* than you will ever be. And I feel your pain.
I couldn’t figure out how to do a banner thingie if my life depended on it, so if it somehow comes to you in a dream, let me know.

LB, I extend a hand of template help if you ever need it.

Uhhh, Luckybuzz? I think you’re fairly new to coming to my blog. ‘Cause it was fairly recently that I learned to add links. Yes, I am that technically challenged. For one of my recent posts, I tried and tried to upload pics. Blogger said they were there. They were not. I had no idea how to fix it. I gave up. (and I can’t figure out how to reconnect my printer to the computer, but I’m getting a new computer, so I just e-mail everything that needs printing to my husband. Feel free to laugh – you are FAR superior to me!!)

So I see you found someone to download your brain. Congratulations! Let me know when you get the banner thing accomplished.
And, by the way, I just noticed the list on the right, and thanks for listing me with the yogini. I like it.

I can help with the banner if you’d like.
I’ll take a stab at template problems, too, but, well, you’ve seen my blog. 🙂

I totally want to do a banner too. When I first started my blog, I played with my template a lot – but now that I’ve invested so much into it, I think I am afraid of messing it up (even though I have the code saved in a word file). I also think I’ve gotten code-stupid over time and the tags and stuff no longer make sense to me.
If you learn how to do it, will you share?

I’m completely a reject when it comes to computers so my little template will likely remain the same for the entirety of my little blog’s life. I was actually quite impressed with myself that I started a blog on that scarey wonderous internet place in the first place.
Point: Don’t feel bad. There’s people worse than you at this computer business.

you can’t be inept when you have the cool expandable comments. I want them. I stole my banner code from Scrivener, so I don’t actually know how it works or I’d offer to help.
Hmm, maybe I should try stealing your comments…

Lucy, you don’t even have to steal them–there’s a thing about how to do them here.
