Nov. 7, 2007 - Baby Steps - Adding to the Side Bar

I am learning how to make changes to my blog!!!

I am so excited!  Yesterday I learned how to add new additions to my Side Bar.  I added a category with links on Notebooking and Lapbooking.  I love these links, and use them as go-alongs with Sonlight's or when we take a break from Sonlight  to do a random unit study.  .

I actually made these additions in just 1 day!  I used directions from Tammy's blog again. (Thank You Tammy)  It worked, but not exactly like I needed it to work.  The color of the title to the category was so light, that I could barely see it.   Also, everything in the lower part of the side board was crowded altogether.  So, after searching through the template and experimenting ~ many mess ups included ~ I was able to change the color of the Header Title and add more space between sections.  I added this just below my Site Meter.  See below for example of what I did:



I am wondering if I needed to make these changes to the html because we have different templates. 

Two things I wish I could figure out.  How to make lines across the Side Bar to separate the sections, and how to make the font size larger.  If anyone out there would like to help me with this, I would truly appreciate it!
