Create a blog through Blogger

  1. First – Create a Super Hero identity: a unique name along with an image for your blog. You will have to have a name for your blog at the time you create it, so you might want to have a name for your super hero first. You may use a photo of yourself as the image, or you may create you own superhero avatar at Marvel Comics or at the Hero Factory. You are, of course, welcome to draw, collage, or create a visual representation of your super hero in any number of other formats as well.

  2. Second – Review the example blog and Blogger’s Getting Started Guide.

  3. Create your blog, incorporating these specific requirements:
    1. Choose a Body Layout from the Template Designer’s LAYOUT TAB that will allow you voting section options to display (one column simple)

      .
      .
    2. Configure your BLOG POSTS section of the Page Elements so that each post has a voting section for your powers, see example; replicate the example carefully or it will not fit.

      .
      .
    3. Configure your Page Elements so that you have a Text Gadget with a voting explanation below each page.

    4. Configure your Page Elements so that you have an Image Gagdet at the top of the layout which includes a cropped horizontal closeup of your superhero OR any other creative horizontal image incorporating your super hero image. The image dimensions should be 640 x 200 pixels. See GIMP Basics 4 – How to Crop and resize an image or How To: Crop An Image in Photoshop CS4 or Crop a Digital Picture using Picasa
