Testing Blogger in Draft.

Inserted photo, and it gave me the possibility to choose the size. Much better.

I can change the picture size without much trouble. Nice. You can also pick photos direct from picasa, recycling in stead of having to upload same photo again from youre harddrive.

There is also a dictionary feature. Not sure what I would need this for? Well, i guess if you need to look up stuff.

Direct upload of video also.

We`ll se where this brings us. Try it out at Blogger in draft

Going x-mas

Time for a bit of x-mas spirit for the TurboLotte blog.

Christmas design

This is not my design. But when I tried this earlier it didn`t work. So I am trying again.. lets see...

Yes it works now.. but i had to change from non-repeat to repeat.

Better using the code:

body {background-image:url(picture url);

background-position: center;

background-repeat: repeat;

background-attachment: fixed;

margin:0;color:$textcolor;

Changing again.

Still don`t like the catblog background. Trying this one.

Changing the design on the catblog

Hoping it will work at kattene på Møvik

But I was not pleased with this one. So i will make a new in a few days..

I have learned something new today. In the url for the picture. Just avter where it says 1600. remove the -h This fixes the problem!
Advice from Anne at Moseplassen. Great blog for blogfixing and other stuff.

Tesing background design again

I want the pattern in the background to crawl onto the posting block.. but I don`t know how to do this, so now i am testing out some new techniques..

So i finally found out. That i would have to use a white field in the middle of the page. Than make shadows on the brushes. ( Dark brushes in its own layer ) .
The white field has to be wider than the blogpage. My blogpage is 900 pixels wide.
Here my background is 1300 pixels wide. Fixed.
I have quite a wide screen on my computer. Most people have now. But I can see on the other two computers we have here, that has "shorter"screens, that the background dissapears completely. But if I make it narrower, it will leave an empty space on wide screens.

So i decided to colour the blogpostingbackground white. So if you are viewing this on a narrow screen, you will only see white background. Better than the pattern interfeering with the text.
The result of the pink background can be seen on my other blog HERE

I made the dark brush strokes with a pattern brush ( photoshop, but same can be used in Gimp ) than a drop down shadow and a gradient overlay. Smooth transparent and pink.

Testing mobile blogging!! I think I finally found out how it works!!

send an email, or mms via youre mobile phone to go@blogger.com with the word REGISTER

than wait.. I got an email not a mms or text message back.

There is a code word, enter it on the www.go.blogger.com page and the crypted word. Choose wich blog to send it to. Wait agian.

Than try to send an mms with a photo maybe as I have done here. to go@blogger.com and wait for the confirmationmail.

Cool...

I found out that far on the end of my "dashboard" page, by cliccking on my email adresse under the mobilblogger settings, I could change the settings, to wich blog I want to send it to.

Confusing? Yes...
