Sorry I haven't commented your blog in quite a while. I'm not quite sure what you posted, I read it a few times but I can't figure it out, maybe you can explain.

Sep. 18, 2006 - Explanation (I hope) :-)

Posted by 50states
Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner.

The first column is the state name. The second column is the population based on the last time they took the official count, which was in 2000. The third column is the number of representatives the state has in the House of Representatives. The fourth column is the change in the number of representatives since 1990.
Example: New York lost two, so it says -2.

I hope that helps!

Dec. 7, 2006 - Changing cursors, etc...

Posted by 50states
Thank you for the comment! You have to use HTML and CSS code to change your mouse, links, and other stuff like that. You would have to sign in to your blog account and go to "Edit Template," then you would need to find the right place to put the code. I got my graphics from www.mbif.net. They have the whole code for all of their stuff, so that you can just copy and paste it into the template.

If you have any thing specific you want to do, I would be glad to help you.

We are doing something similar to this. We started out asking for postcards from all over the world...
we call it "Around the world in 80 postcards (more or less)" http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/buffalorock/189294/Around+the+World+in+80+postcards+%28more+or+less%29.html
We will definately be checking back as we work on our studies of the 50 states. Good Job!
