HOW TO MAKE A BLOGSKIN

Please pay attention, if you want to learn. I'm trying to make this as clear as possible.

(1) Click here for a very self-explanatory tutorial. If you don't change anything in particular (IE. other than the pic and colours and fonts) it will turn out very simple, very neat.

(2) Blogskin-making must-haves.

(3) Blogskins use ANGLED BRACKETS (Next to M and ? on the keyboard. Should be.) The one that looks like ( is used to "open" a code (AKA tell the computer to start putting a certain code into action) and the one that looks like ) is used to "close" a code (AKA tell the computer to end the certain code right there). So shortcuts you can use are*:

*Replace all ( ) brackets with angled ones!

If you're confident and willing, sign up for blogskins.com (free) and submit your skins, where others can view, download, rate and comment on it. If you submit your skin with a screenshot (should be a PRT SC option on your keyboard, near the top; then CTRL + V or paste it into Paint and save the resultant image as an image on your computer) your skin's also eligible for Skin of the Day (for more info check out the site).

This is a really simple tutorial, there are loads more on the Internet, ESP on blogskins.com. Check out their forums for more details.

I am a self-confessed shopaholic who's obsessed with Broadway and Photoshop. My laptop, iPod and vast collection of books are probably my best friends, along with my awesome set of markers, countless notebooks, and of course, those humans I like to talk to. I'm going to post a little wishlist below this, and if you're a kind soul you'll peruse and grant some wishes.


  1. A (cropped?) blazer of black material or dark blue denim.
  2. Lots of pretty skirts.
  3. Strappy platforms/espadrilles.
  4. Embellished tank tops.
  5. Straw clutch.
  6. Twilight series.
  7. Shopaholic series, sans & Sister.
  8. A walk-in wardrobe.
