A Little Help?

Actually, I probably need a lot...

Published on July 11, 2004 By chiprj In Blogging

When I go to other people's blogs here on JU, I see at the top of the page a title bar with the JU symbol and a small font saying "Blogs for the Average Joe" under it, and also the title of the blog site. In the corner is a RSS button. But when I go to my own site, I never see this. Is this because you never see your own title bar, or am I missing something. I've gone to manage/edit site and I see nothing that looks like it would add this title bar (keep it absent). Can someone please point me in the right direction. I've tried searching the JU site and articles for help, but am finding nothing.

Also, I saw an article by draginol about making your blog better. One of his suggestions was to link to blogstreet or something similar. I went there and tried but I have to cut and paste something to my homepage. I have no idea how to do this. I am fairly html ignorant, but I can cut and paste as well as the next guy. I just don't know where to cut and paste to.

Thanks in advance!

I have the formatting you're talking about. But I have no idea how to change it. I've often considered asking how to make my blog look like this formatting, just out of curiosity. Sorry I couldn't help.

when you are signed into your blog you should see a little grey box in the upper right side of your screen.. this should have aan option for "My Account" in it. CLick it. Once there you will see an option for "Select Site Theme & Titles" This is where you can set your blog title options.

Aha, I put in a site title before, but not a site description. The site description part did it. Thanks for the save!
