First I wasn't able to see the picture, just the HTLM-script underneath, but this was because I pasted the ( ) next to the red "the code you pasted..".

Changing the font size will have to be done with your actual blog, not the code I gave you. <br /><br />I'm glad your button worked out. It looks great. I'm glad you got some practice with Pixlr, too!Danihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09276379884708772760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647479461649599346.post-823391530463891352011-08-06T16:57:25.646-07:002011-08-06T16:57:25.646-07:00Thx Dani

Revisiting the code tells me the change is still there, just not working out. I suspect it may be an issue with my theme. There are a few challenges that can come up from time to time.<br />I like the button, although creating w/the layers was too challenging for me. Good practice for with the the new tool, Pixlr.poulingailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06367868612834399503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647479461649599346.post-37384774335803472512011-08-06T16:01:57.139-07:002011-08-06T16:01:57.139-07:00gail,
Your button looks great! So glad you figure...gail,<br /><br />Your button looks great! So glad you figured it out. I have not tried Picasa yet but have been meaning to. <br /><br />To modify the box, change the part that says <i>3px</i> (after border:) to 1px or 2px to make it skinnier and more than 3 to make it fatter. <br /><br />To change the size of the box, you need to change the height and width. The HTML I gave you is for a box 125px wide by 125px high. So find the part that says "height: 125px; width: 125px;" and change the numbers only. Make sure you keep all the colons, semicolons, and <i>px</i>. <br /><br />The code I gave you is not making your text bold. I'm not sure how your blog works, since it isn't Blogger. But, if you are able to change the HTML yourself, you need to find the part that says: "#blog_right #sidebar2 ul li". Under that section it says, <i>font-weight:bold;</i>. Change the word to <i>bold</i> to <i>normal</i>. This will change more than just your button though, so if you want other parts of your sidebar to be bold, do not change this.<br /><br />Does this help?Danihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09276379884708772760noreply@blogger.com
