If you saw a few of tweets from me last week you'll know that I went to Sydney for the launch of Kidspot's Top 50 Bloggers. To tell you I was a little excited to be nominated was an understatement! I've watched many a blogging competition go by over the years, but hadn't really …
We've been very busy in The Media Maid office (aka my house!). These 5 blogs were finished last week. Click on the pictures to be taken to the blogs to see more. Or there is more in my portfolio on my Facebook page. I am taking on new clients! I endeavour to …
I've got an observation today on this blog post... With the expansion of the interwebs, so too do the places where people hang out. When I started blogging back in 2006, I hadn't even heard of Facebook. Bloggers used to be a small group. Comments for your blog came only from other bloggers. There …
Howdy! Today I will give you a quick run down on how to change the Navbar (Fat Mum Slim showed a similar idea here) and centre your Pages tabs on your blogspot blog. The code you need (which I talk about in the video) is below. Just copy and paste it. Navbar #navbar-iframe{opacity:0.0;filter:alpha(Opacity=0)} #navbar-iframe:hover{opacity:1.0;filter:alpha(Opacity=100, …
Ever wondered whether twitter is for you? I am a fan of the twitterverse. That's no secret. I'm an over-sharer. That's no secret. You either are or you aren't and I'm cool with that! I can be a real pain in the bum to my in-real-life friends when I start rambling on about twitter. Luckily some of them are …
I have a new computer program, so I'd thought I'd try it out with a simple tutorial for the Comment Settings on a blogspot blog. Note: If you use the new interface in your Dashboard - switch back to the old one. Go to the right-top, click the cog and select Old blogger interface. In …
So we all know Picnik is closing soon (sad face :( ). Hands up who used this every now and then? I did! I loved the ease of making a collage. Now what are we going to do?? I decided to do a little research and found these sites below. I have only had …
1/2/3/4/5/6/ 7+8 Logos Oh boy it's been busy at The Media Maid. This is only half of what I have been up to! Loving it. There are some great blogs out there and some really creative people. I just help them set everything out better. I get a lot of people who also ask …
Ever fleetingly thought what would happen if you woke up one day and couldn't see your blog? What if you couldn't access the dashboard? What if you frantically grabbed your phone, ipad, laptop... and still couldn't see it? I'm paranoid this will happen to me. I am no expert in the technical side of hosting, viruses …
Morning bloggers! As the new year began, a lot of bloggers started to ponder and think about what direction they want to take their blog. I've been reading lots of your posts where you talk about new directions, feeling refreshed and excited about your blog for 2012. This is great! But have you thought about …
Things may look a little different over here. Not too different, but a little tidier I think. I have been looking at my google analytics to work out where all you lovely readers come from every day. The majority seem to come from 'referring sites'. These are like a direct link to the post for …
If you have a fancy schmancy blog design my moi, SOME of you won't have this feature yet. It's because I start from scratch with HTML. I don't use the pre-made blogger templates. However, I've been all over blogland and some have it already! Hooray for you! Hang in there if you don't... You also …
